Stuffed Pepper Soup

Ingredients:

  • 1 onion, diced
  • 2 bell peppers (any color), diced
  • 4 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 pound 90% lean ground beef
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried basil
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 2 cans (14.5 ounces each) fire roasted tomatoes (or plain diced tomatoes)
  • 1 can (15 ounces) tomato sauce
  • 2 cups low-sodium beef broth
  • 2 cups cooked rice
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish
  • Fresh Parmesan cheese, grated, for garnish (optional)

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Vegetables: Dice your onion and bell peppers. Mince the garlic cloves and set all aside.
  2. Brown the Ground Beef: In a large soup pot over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned. Break up the meat as it cooks and season with salt and pepper. Remove beef to a paper towel-lined plate.
  3. Sauté the Vegetables: In the same pot, add olive oil and sauté the diced bell pepper and onion for 3-4 minutes or until slightly softened. Add garlic, dried basil, dried oregano, and dried thyme. Stir for 30 seconds.
  4. Add Beef and Other Ingredients: Return the ground beef to the pot and add fire-roasted tomatoes, tomato sauce, and beef broth. Stir to combine, bring to a simmer, and let simmer covered for 20 minutes.
  5. Prepare the Rice: While the soup simmers, cook the rice according to your preferred method. If pre-cooked, simply set aside.
  6. Stir the Rice into the Soup: Once the soup has simmered, stir in the cooked rice, making sure it’s fully incorporated.
  7. Garnish and Serve: Serve your Stuffed Pepper Soup hot, garnished with freshly chopped parsley and optional Parmesan cheese.
  8. Store Leftovers: This soup stores well in the fridge for up to 5 days or in the freezer for up to 3 months. Freeze in suitable containers, leaving room for expansion.

Notes:

  • Feel free to substitute Italian seasoning for the individual herbs if needed.
  • Fire-roasted tomatoes add more flavor, but regular diced tomatoes will work too.
  • If using an 80% lean ground beef, drain off any excess fat before proceeding.
