1. I like a really meaty Stuffed Pepper Soup so I start with 2 pounds of ground beef. Brown it, drain the grease off.
   
2. Add the onions and peppers. Cook them down until they start to get soft.
   
3. Then add canned tomatoes, 2 beef bouillon cubes, water, some brown sugar for a hint of sweetness, and a few dried herbs for flavor. Simmer for 30 minutes.
   
4. Add the rice.
   

   I like to add the rice in just before serving or it tends to soak up too much liquid.

   

   How To Serve

   Serve with some crusty bread or Saltines crackers and you have yourself a meal! Also great with some Texas-Style Jiffy Cornbread.

   Recipe Tips

   • If you want to make a spicy version of this soup, add 1 or 2 finely diced jalapeno peppers in with the bell peppers. You can also add 1 teaspoon of hot sauce.
   • Use a combo of red and green bell peppers instead of all green bell peppers for a little extra sweetness.
   • If you want to make this soup low carb, use riced cauliflower instead of white rice and leave the brown sugar out.
