Stuffed peppers are a favorite in my household. My husband requests them quite often. The recipe for this soup is actually very simple. You’re simply taking all of the ingredients of a traditional stuffed pepper, and making it into a soup.
And I have to say that this soup is so delicious. It makes for a very hearty and flavorful meal. It is also a very thick soup that has the consistency of a stew, so it is sure to fill you up. I do believe that this will become a new favorite in our house. I hope your family enjoys it as much as mine did.

1 – pound ground beef or ground turkey
1 – tablespoon olive oil
1 – cup chopped onion
1 1/2 – teaspoons minced garlic

That soup must be so filling and flavorful- I just saw meat. Ha-ha! Anyway, I’d probably not take it as soup but as a side dish with hot rice.
