Stuffed Pepper Soup Recipe

Stuffed Pepper Soup – all the flavors of a stuffed bell pepper in easy, hearty and comforting soup form!

Just like my classic Stuffed Peppers this soup is made with basic ingredients like ground beef, tomatoes and rice. It’s a delicious soup everyone will love!

This is one of the most cozy soup recipes with rich homestyle flavor. It totally reminds me of growing up and being home. There’s just so much goodness in one bowl of this hearty soup.

You’ll love the comforting flavors in this soup and how well all the flavors blend together. The peppers and tomatoes offer a mellow and faintly sweet flavor, while the beef kicks in that flavor that will remind you of a traditional stuffed pepper.

And the rice in this soup gives it such a great texture and adds some body to it to keep it filling.

It’s the lazy way of making stuffed peppers and one of my go-to soup recipes. Trust me you’ll love this one!

This a fairly thick soup and it has a consistency similar to a stew, which I love because it will fill my family up and I don’t have to make a bunch of sides to serve with it.

I usually just serve it with fresh bread to keep that homestyle comfort and simplicity going, it’s also great paired with a side salad or roasted vegetables.
