I love a good stuffed pepper, but I never eat the actual pepper. So my solution to getting my stuffed pepper kick out of my system is this delicious stuffed pepper soup.
3 cups cooked brown rice (about 4 servings if you use minute rice)
1 lb 95% lean ground beef
1/2 cup chopped green bell pepper
1/2 cup chopped red bell pepper
3/4 cup finely diced onion
3 cloves garlic, chopped
1 large can petite diced tomatoes no salt added
1 3/4 cups tomato sauce (medium size can)
2 cups reduced sodium, fat-free chicken broth
1/2 tsp dried marjoram
salt and fresh pepper to taste
Directions:
In a dutch oven (or a large pot) brown ground meat on high heat. Once brown and if necessary, drain any fat from the pan.
Reduce heat to medium-low, then add peppers, onions and garlic. Cook about 5 minutes on low heat.
Add tomatoes, tomato sauce, chicken broth, marjoram and season with pepper to taste. Cover and simmer on low heat for 30 minutes.
Add about a 1/2 cup of cooked brown rice to the bowl. Add about 1.5 cups of soup in each bowl.
