Hearty Stuffed Pepper Soup

A warm, comforting bowl of soup capturing the sweetness of bell peppers, savory ground beef, and tangy marinara.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 3 bell peppers, diced
  • 1/2 cup yellow onion, finely chopped
  • 1 cup instant white rice
  • 24 oz marinara sauce
  • 1 can (14 oz) petite diced tomatoes, drained
  • 4 cups chicken broth
  • 2 tsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp chicken bouillon powder

Instructions

  1. Heat the oil. In a large pot, warm 2 tsp olive oil over medium heat until it shimmers slightly.
  2. Sauté the onions. Add 1/2 cup finely chopped yellow onion and cook until translucent, about 3 to 5 minutes.
  3. Brown the beef. Add 1 lb ground beef and cook until browned, then drain excess fat.
  4. Add tomatoes, sauce, peppers, and broth. Stir in 3 diced bell peppers, 24 oz marinara sauce, 1 can (14 oz) petite diced tomatoes, and 4 cups chicken broth.
  5. Simmer with bouillon. Bring the mixture to a simmer, add 1 tsp chicken bouillon powder, and simmer briefly.
  6. Cook the rice. Stir in 1 cup instant white rice and cook according to package instructions.
  7. Final taste and serve. Taste the soup and adjust seasoning if needed, then serve warm.

Notes

Use a mix of bell peppers for added flavor and color. Drain excess fat for a clearer broth.
