Stuffed Green Pepper Soup

I gave some of this stuffed pepper soup to a neighbor who said that her husband probably wouldn't eat it as it had onions in it. She said he tried it, loved it, and asked me for the recipe. I have used instant brown rice, and it worked fine.

Ingredients

Ingredients List

  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil

  • 3 green bell peppers, diced small

  • 1 onion, diced small

  • 1 clove garlic, minced

  • 2 ½ pounds ground beef

  • 3 quarts water

  • 2 (29 ounce) cans tomato sauce

  • 2 (28 ounce) cans petite diced tomatoes in juice

  • ½ cup ketchup

  • ½ cup beef base

  • ¼ cup brown sugar

  • ½ teaspoon salt

  • ½ teaspoon ground black pepper

  • 4 cups water

  • 2 cups brown rice


Directions

  1. Heat vegetable oil in a large pot over medium heat. Cook and stir bell pepper, onion, and garlic in hot oil until soft, 5 to 7 minutes. Break ground beef into small chunks and add to the pot; cook and stir until completely browned, 7 to 10 minutes more. Drain excess fat and return pot to heat.

  2. Stir water, tomato sauce, diced tomatoes, ketchup, beef base, brown sugar, salt, and pepper into the beef mixture; bring to a simmer and cook until the flavors marry, about 30 minutes.

  3. While the soup simmers, bring water and brown rice to a boil in a saucepan. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until rice is tender and liquid has been absorbed, 45 to 50 minutes; stir into the soup.
