Re: Looking For Stuffed Pepper Soup Recipe?

This is the one I use.

Stuffed Bell Pepper Soup
2 pounds ground beef
1 can tomato sauce (28 oz)
1-28 oz can diced tomatoes, undrained (I used diced tomatoes with Italian seasoning)
2 cups COOKED rice
2 cups chopped green bell pepper (I used 3 large)
2 beef bouillon cubes (I used 'Better than Bullion')
1/4 cup packed brown sugar
1 t. salt (or to taste)
1/2 t. pepper (or to taste)

In a large saucepan or dutch oven brown beef, drain.
Add remaining ingredients, EXCEPT rice, bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer 45 minutes,
add rice and simmer for about another 30 minutes.

This makes a really thick soup. Posted By: fuzzbe2000

Re: Looking For Stuffed Pepper Soup Recipe?

I've made this one. It is very easy and so good. Oliverio jarred peppers in sauce are a West Virginia product, but you may have something similar in your area. These can be ordered by mail. They have a FB page and a website with a lot of other good recipes.

They recommend using some peppers inside a grilled cheese sandwich. I haven't tried that yet, but am thinking about it, sounds so simple. They have a yummy looking meatloaf too. Becki

OLIVERIO PEPPER SOUP

1 lb. lean ground beef

1 chopped onion

2 25.5 oz. jars Oliverio Peppers in Sauce in desired hotness (I used the Sweet peppers)

2 cans beef broth

2 cups cooked white rice

In a large skillet brown ground beef and chopped onion, drain. In a large pot (or crockpot) pour the two jars Oliverio Peppers in Sauce and the beef broth. Stir in drained meat and onion, add cooked rice and simmer. Serve with your favorite bread.

*When I made this, I used the crockpot and let it simmer on low for a couple of hours probably. I think I added a little water at one point. It was good and even better reheated the next day. Yum.

Re: Looking For Stuffed Pepper Soup Recipe?

I may try this recipe but will definitely omit the brown sugar! I certainly don't want a sweet soup. Sounds good though.

Re: Looking For Stuffed Pepper Soup Recipe?

  Katey1261,these soup & stuffed pepper recipes were taken from this forum. I comparedthe stuffed peppers ingredients with the soup ingredients and added those I liked to thesoup. This past summer, I found bell peppers/zucchini/yellow squash combo pkgs in the produce section literally for pennies--- oh, that soup turned out so delicious!!! I love soup ANYtime of the year.  
  HOPING THE FORMAT IS BETTER THIS TIME!!!  
  Big Mike's Greek Roasted Stuffed Peppers Everyone has a stuffed pepper recipe. I borrowed the concept of mine from Ellie's Greek-Style Stuffed Peppers. After making it, posting the results getting some feedback from friends and family I modified it and the results were outstanding. The biggest thing I changed was to roast the peppers before stuffing them. I like the peppers to be softer than the original recipe made and I love the extra flavor from the roasting process. I also added lamb to the meat mixture. I mean, hey, this is supposed to be a Greek recipe, right? It doesn't matter if you make red or green peppers, you'll love this recipe. .......FunkyHulaGirl Ingredients  
  1/2 pound lean ground beef   
  1/2 pound ground lamb   
  1 (10-ounce) package frozen chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed dry   
  1 medium zucchini, coarsely grated (about 2 cups)   
  1 small onion, minced (about 1 cup)   
  3/4 cup white rice (cooked)   
  1 egg, lightly beaten   
  1/2 teaspoon dried oregano   
  1/2 teaspoon salt   
  Freshly ground black pepper   
  3 large red or green bell peppers, halved lengthwise, cores and ribs removed   
  2 (14 1/2-ounce) cans stewed tomatoes   
  3/4 cup good marinara sauce   
  1/3 cup crumbled feta cheese   
  Directions   
  Cut and core the peppers, then place them on a roasting pan open side down and broil them in the oven for 5-10 minutes (until they are scorched a bit and softened). You can do this on the top burners of your stove also, I prefer doing them all at once in the broiler. Remove from broiler and let cool. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. In a large bowl combine the beef, lamb, spinach, zucchini, onion, rice, egg, oregano, salt and a few grinds of pepper. Mix until thoroughly combined. In another bowl combine the stewed tomatoes and marinara sauce and mash with a potato masher until the tomatoes are broken into smaller pieces. Arrange the pepper halves cut side up in a 9 by 13-inch baking dish and fill each pepper half with the meat mixture. Pour the tomato marinara mix over the peppers. Cover with foil and bake for 30 minutes. Uncover and bake until the meat mixture is completely cooked and the peppers are tender, about 25 minutes longer. Sprinkle with the feta cheese and serve.

  Stuffed Pepper Soup I also make a Stuffed Pepper Soup that was posted by SnuggleBunny (on QVC forum) several years ago. Get out your crockpot. This is a nice recipe to make this time of year since fresh tomatoes are readily available. I tweaked SBs recipe a bit and here it is:   
  1.5 lb. lean ground beef (prefer 80% chuck)   
  1- 28 oz. can tomato sauce 1- 28 oz. can diced tomatoes fresh tomatoes diced (just a few, if available)   
  2 c. diced green peppers (or green & red)   
  1 c. diced onions 2 cubes beef bouillon   
  1/2 c. packed brown sugar   
  1 Tbsp. parsley   
  ½ teas. marjoram   
  ½ teas. oregano   
  ½ teas. basil   
  2 teas. salt    
  1 teas. pepper   
  32 oz. beef broth   
  1 c. instant rice ---- (added after one hour on high)   
  Brown beef in large pan. Place in crock pot and add remaining ingredients (except rice). Stir everything together. Set crock pot on HIGH and cook for one hour. Add 1 cup rice. Turn down to LOW and cook for another 2 hours. Enjoy … it’s delicious.

  Crock Pot Stuffed Bell Pepper Soup-- Yield: 8-10 servings   
  1 lb ground beef 1 large onion, chopped small   
  4 large bell peppers, I used 2 red, a yellow and a green   
  1 can black beans, drained and rinsed   
  32 oz beef stock   
  16 ounces tomato sauce   
  2 TBS Worcestershire sauce   
  1 TBS Italian seasoning blend   
  2 tsp kosher salt, divided   
  1 tsp black pepper, divided   
  1/4 - 1/2 tsp crushed red pepper flakes   
  3 cups warm cooked rice   
  Cook and crumble the ground beef in a skillet over medium to medium high heat. Season the meat with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper while it is cooking. Add the onions to the skillet when it is almost browned. When the onions are tender, transfer the mixture to the Crock-Pot and add all the remaining ingredients EXCEPT the rice. Set the temperature to HIGH (for 3-4 hours) or to LOW (for 8+ hours). * When the peppers are tender, place a scoop of rice into each bowl and then ladle soup over it. Stir to combine. Enjoy! *   
  STOVE-TOP DIRECTIONS: If you prefer to make this on the stove, simply cook the meat and onion in a large pot. Once it has cooked, add all remaining ingredients (EXCEPT the rice) to the pot and simmer on low until the peppers are tender. This should take about an hour.

Let me say Vabreeze, you so over the top and I really want to say Thank You. I will check all this out. I will probably not add Brown Sugar since I have not tasted this in a Soup like this. I want savory not sweet.
