Soup Sunday- Stuffed Pepper Soup

 

I still make soup most weekends in the Winter. I just don't always have a new recipe or time to post here.  This soup was perfect for a cold winter day. It was 10F the day I made this soup.  It really does taste like stuffed peppers.


Stuffed Pepper Soup











1 lb ground beef
1 small yellow onion
1 red bell pepper diced
1 green bell pepper diced
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
1 teaspoon crushed red peppers
2 (14.5-ounce) cans of diced tomatoes
1 (15-ounce) can of tomato sauce
2 cups beef broth
1 cup cooked brown rice
salt and pepper to taste


Heat a large pot over medium heat. Add the hamburger, garlic, and onions. Brown until all the meat is brown. Pour off any excess fat.  Add the broth, tomatoes, sauce, and spices. Stir well and cook over low heat for 10 minutes.  Add the peppers and cook for 5 minutes.  Add the cooked rice.  Serves 6. A serving size is 2 cups
