This is one of my all time favorite soups! It's thick and hearty similar to a chili, but has the same flavor as traditional stuffed peppers! Using extra-lean ground beef, 98% fat free beef broth, and brown rice make this recipe surprisingly healthy. It's very easy to make and also freezes well. Serve up with some crusty bread and you have a one pot dinner. Ingredients:
1 1/2 lbs extra lean ground beef (or ground turkey) |
3 large green bell peppers, diced |
1 large onion, diced |
2 (10 3/4 ounce) cans tomato soup |
2 (14 1/2 ounce) cans low-sodium low-fat beef broth |
1 (32 ounce) can diced tomatoes (i like petite diced, could also use crushed) |
1 cup cooked brown rice |
Directions:
1. Brown ground beef in a large pot. Drain off fat after it is cooked. 2. Add diced peppers and onions to pot. 3. Pour in tomato soup, beef broth, and diced tomatoes. 4. Bring to a boil then reduce heat and simmer. 5. Add brown rice, cook until peppers and onions reach desired tenderness and soup thickens. |
