Print Recipe

Stuffed Pepper Soup is a hearty and comforting dish that captures the classic flavors of stuffed bell peppers in a delicious, easy-to-make soup. Perfect for a cozy dinner any time of year.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1 cup white rice, uncooked
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 3 bell peppers (red, green, yellow), diced
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 can (14.5 oz) diced tomatoes
  • 1 can (15 oz) tomato sauce
  • 4 cups beef broth
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1 tsp dried basil
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 2 tbsp olive oil

Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add diced onions and garlic; sauté until softened, about 3-4 minutes.
  2. Add ground beef to the pot and cook until browned, breaking it up with a spoon as it cooks.
  3. Stir in the diced bell peppers and cook for another 5 minutes until slightly tender.
  4. Add uncooked rice, diced tomatoes, tomato sauce, and beef broth to the pot. Stir well to combine.
  5. Season with oregano, basil, salt, and pepper. Bring the soup to a boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer covered for 25-30 minutes until the rice is tender.
  6. Adjust seasoning if needed. Serve hot, garnished with fresh herbs or shredded cheese if desired.

Notes

For a healthier twist, substitute ground turkey for beef or use brown rice instead of white rice. Serving with crusty bread makes a perfect meal.
