Soup Sunday- Stuffed Pepper Soup


It is fall which brings beautiful fall colors to Wisconsin. It also means cool nights as we grow closer to winter.  The weather is now perfect for soup. So I am back to my weekly Sunday ritual of cooking soup for the week.  This made a huge amount. I had enough to share with my neighbor and brother. It freezes well too and I put away some for a week when I am too busy to cook.



1 pound ground turkey
1 quart V 8 juice
3 medium peppers ( red, yellow, green) chopped into bite size pieces
1/2 white onion chopped
1 28 ounce can diced tomatoes
1 6 ounce can tomato paste
1 12 ounce can tomato sauce
1 4 ounce can diced green chillies
2 celery ribs chopped
1 tablespooon minced garlic
1 cup rice blend ( white rice, wild rice, quinoa)

In a large stock pot, brown the turkey and onion.  Cook until no longer pink.  Add all of the rest of the incredients except the peppers and the rice.  Bring to a low boil. Add the rice and cook for one hour until the rice is tender. Add the peppers and cook for 5 minutes.  Salt and pepper to taste.

Serves 8
