The BEST Stuffed Pepper Soup
Ingredients
- 1.5 lbs. Ground Beef – you can also use turkey, sausage or a combo.
- 2 tbsp butter
- ½ tsp Salt
- ½ tsp Pepper
- ½ small onion
- 2 tsp Garlic – minced
- 1 cup Pepper – Orange (medium peper)
- 1 cup Pepper – Green (medium pepper)
BROTH MIXTURE
- 4 cups Chicken broth – low sodium (about one carton)
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning
- 14.5 oz Tomato – canned and diced
- 24 oz Sauce – Tomato sauce canned – flavored
- 2 ½ tbsp Worcestershire Sauce
- 1 small box Orzo (you will have extra)
Instructions
PREP TIME
- Onions – dice them small. Garlic – if you did not buy minced, then mince the garlic. Peppers – ROUGHLY cut these up.
THE MEAT
- Saute' the onions and garlic in butter, just long enough to release the flavor.
- Add the meat, salt and pepper adn brown the meat
- Add the peppers when the meat is half way cooked, this will absorb some of the grease
- drain remaining grease when meat is browned
THE BROTH
- You can either add this to the meat when it is finished or you can start it in a 2nd pot and then combine – adding the meat to the broth when it is drained.
- combine the Tomatoes, Sauce, Worcestershire Sauce and Italian Seasonings – simmer
- let it simmer for about 30minutes so all the flavors can marry together.
THE ORZO
- Cook separately so that you can use the remainder later.
PLATE IT
- We give the kids 1/2 cup of the orzo and 3/4 of the stuffed pepper mix… that seems to be the perfect amount for them with no waste.
- LEFTOVERS – I placed these in mason jars with some orzo in the middle.
SLOWCOOKER INSRUCTIONS – freezer to crockpot
- chop everything up and dump into ziplock bag – except broth
- Yes – add the raw meat in, break it up when you pop it in the bag
- Freeze
- Pull out of freezer the night before and thaw in the fridge
- Dump into crockpot and cook on low for 6 to 8 hours – be certain to dump the broth in at this time as well.
- we suggest making the orzo separately and plate when you serve. This will allow you to use the leftovers a litle better. If you do not want to use orze – rice goes well too.
