How to make stuffed pepper soup:
- Ground beef – cooked and crumbled
- Bell peppers – I use green and red
- Yellow onion
- Garlic

- Seasonings – oregano, basil, salt and pepper.
- Minute brand rice – WAIT TO ADD until the end of the cooking time.
How long do I cook this?

- Chicken breasts (put in raw and shred before serving)
Can I make this Vegan?
- Use soy crumbles instead of beef or leave it out.
- Vegetarian broth

Great recipe! Easy to put together in very little time! Thanks for sharing this great recipe!
great recipe. I used venison meat but it still turned out great. I also like your venison chili recipe. thank you
Your Stuffed Pepper soup was so good I give two thumbs and my two pinkies.
Could you use tomato soup instead of sauce ?
Yes, I think that would work fine. They have a similar texure.
Very easy to make and delicious even my kids love it! Thanks!
So good and easy! Didn’t really make any modifications, if anything I would add a little more meat but definitely making again!
Made this for the first time tonight. So good. The only thing I would change is swapping out the minute rice for regular rice. Just didn’t care for the texture.
