Stuffed pepper soup is great as a comforting meal or as a light lunch. I like to make a batch on Sunday and portion it out for easy lunches all week. It freezes well, too!
How to make it
Add the ground beef and onion to a large skillet over medium heat. Cook until the beef is no longer pink and the onion is tender, drain if necessary. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Pour the beef and onions into the crock pot. Add in the canned tomatoes, tomato sauce, beef broth, bell peppers, tomato paste, garlic and Italian seasoning.
Cover and cook on low 6 hours or high 3 hours.
Add in the rice, stir, recover and cook another 15-20 minutes until the rice is tender.
Serve with a sprinkle of shredded mozzarella cheese.
Tips
*Use brown or white rice, make sure it’s instant rice or pre-cooked.
*Sub ground chicken or turkey for the beef.
*This freezes well! Spoon the completely cooled soup into freezer safe containers, such as these Souper Cubes and seal. Freeze up to 6 months.
*Refrigerate leftovers up to 4 days.

I don’t see peppers in the recipe, but do in the pics & recipe name. Is this meant to have peppers, or is it meant to be like the fulling in a stuffed pepper?
Hi, I’m sorry, I’m not sure what you mean? If you scroll to the bottom of the post the recipe card is there with ingredients, measurements, and instructions. There’s 2 bell peppers in the recipe. Hope this helps.
This soup was so easy to put together and so yummy! It was a hit all the way around, even with my two year old. My husband liked it so much, he requested it be in regular meal plan rotation!
Ok those are huge wins!!! So happy to hear!
