How to make stuffed pepper soup:

Ground beef – cooked and crumbled
Bell peppers – I use green and red
Yellow onion
Garlic
Fire-roasted tomatoes
Tomato sauce
Chicken broth – I prefer chicken broth for recipes for it tastes less tinny than beef, though you can use beef broth if desired.
Seasonings – oregano, basil, salt and pepper.
Minute brand rice – WAIT TO ADD until the end of the cooking time.

Can I use a different kind of meat?

Ground beef is a great choice for this soup though you can choose another meat of your choice and make this soup to your liking. Try another meat such as one of these:

Ground sausage such as Jimmy Dean
Ground turkey
Chicken breasts (put in raw and shred before serving)
