Method to cook Stuffed Pepper Soup on the stovetop

  1. In a Dutch Oven, drizzle about one tablespoon of olive oil. Heat the olive oil over medium heat. Once heated, add the lean ground beef to the Dutch Oven and season with kosher salt and black pepper. Cook, occasionally stirring while breaking up the meat until browned. Drain the beef of excess oil if needed and set aside on a plate or platter.
  2. Next, brown the Italian sausage until browned. Drain the Italian sausage and reserve on a plate or platter until needed.
  3. Heat remaining olive oil in the Dutch Oven, then add the onions and garlic and saute for a few moments to soften.
  4. Pour in the organic diced tomatoes, organic tomato sauce, low-sodium beef broth, add dried basil, dried oregano, cooked ground beef, and cooked sweet Italian sausage. Then season with Kosher salt and black pepper to your own taste. Bring the stuffed pepper soup just to a slight boil, then reduce the heat. Simmer the soup about 15 to 20 minutes before adding the roughly chopped green bell peppers and yellow bell peppers—Cook about 10 minutes longer or until peppers are desired softness.
  5. While the Stuffed pepper soup simmers, prepare the organic wild rice blend according to directions listed on the package, then once the soup is done simmering, stir in the desired amount of cooked rice into the soup, or you can serve the soup over the wild rice blend.
  6. Serve while warm with fresh parsley as a garnish and freshly baked Italian bread.

Pro Tips for the Stuffed Pepper Soup recipe

  1. Use a leaner ground beef when making the soup recipe. I usually use 93/7, but you can use a higher fat content and drain off the excess oils if need be.
  2. Either Sweet Italian sausage links can be used in the recipe or ground Sweet Italian Sausage. Cook separately from the ground beef and then drain excess oils from the sausage.
  3.  If you can not purchase fresh organic produce, try to use locally grown produce for the best results.
  4. Purchase quality organic tomatoes and tomato sauce for the best results when making this Stuffed Pepper Soup recipe.
  5. Please do not add the rice to the Stuffed pepper soup until the end stage of cooking, not to become mushy overnight.
  6. If you plan on having the Stuffed Pepper Soup for leftovers within the next few days, don’t add the rice to the Dutch Oven. Just add the rice to each bowl before serving.
  7. Then reserve the rice in a separate container in the refrigerator to add to the soup the next day (otherwise, it will become soggy)

 

 

 

How to store the Stuffed Pepper Soup correctly.

  1. Store: The Leftover soup in an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 4-5 days.
  2. Freeze: The soup in an airtight freezer-safe container for up to 3-4 months.  Be sure to freeze the soup without the rice.
  3. Reheat: Allow the Stuffed Pepper Soup to thaw overnight in the refrigerator if frozen, and then heat the soup on the stovetop until hot.

    We love our stuffed peppers and I had planned on making them on Friday. I found this recipe and decided to make the peppers into a soup. What a fantastic idea that was. The soup hit just the spot plus it was much easier than stuffing the peppers. We had a bit leftover and had it for lunch the following day. Will be making this soup often.
