Why You’ll Love this Recipe

  • Same great taste as stuffed peppers, but in soup form!
  • Easily made in just 30 minutes.
  • You only need to use one pot which makes cleaning up a breeze.
  • This recipe is gluten-free, diary-free and lower in carbs.

Ingredients You’ll Need

  • Ground beef – I used 90% lean ground beef, but you could use ground chicken, ground turkey, ground pork or even sausage in this soup. You could also swap out the meat for some beans to make this a vegetarian or vegan meal.
  • Bell peppers – a combination of red and green bell peppers were used in this soup, but any color bell peppers will work.
  • Onion – you can use a white or yellow onion in this soup.
  • Garlic – this really punches up the flavor and is a must in this soup!
  • Tomatoes – you’ll need two cans of diced tomatoes and one can of tomato sauce. Feel free to use fire-roasted tomatoes for even more flavor!
  • Beef broth – I used a low sodium beef broth, but you could also use vegetable broth or any stocks you have in your pantry.
  • Cauliflower rice – this is a great low carb option and packs even more veggies into this meal. You could also use cooked rice or even quinoa.
  • Seasonings – I used a combination of Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. You could also use oregano and dried basil if you don’t have any Italian seasoning on hand.
  • Fresh parsley – adds a pop of color to this soup and a nice fresh taste!

How to Make Stuffed Bell Pepper Soup

  1. Brown the meat. In a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat, cook the ground beef, crumbling with a spoon, until browned. Drain off the excess grease and transfer to a plate lined with a paper towel.
  2. Sauté the veggies. Drizzle a little olive oil in the hot pan and add in the onion and bell peppers, cooking about 2 to 3 minutes, until onion is translucent and peppers have softened. Stir in the garlic cloves and seasonings, sautéing an additional 30 seconds or so until fragrant.
  3. Let the soup simmer. Add back in the browned ground beef, along with the rest of the ingredients (except for the cauliflower rice), and bring everything to a boil. Reduce the heat and cover, allowing the soup to simmer for about 20 minutes.
  4. Add the cauliflower rice. Add in the cauliflower rice and simmer for an additional 5 to 7 minutes, until cauliflower has softened. Ladle the soup into bowls, season with additional salt and pepper, if desired, and enjoy!

How to Serve Stuffed Pepper Soup

  • Add some fresh toppings like shredded cheese, sour cream, fresh herbs, and some avocado slices.
  • If cauliflower rice isn’t your thing, pour soup over some cooked rice or mix it right in the soup. You want to make sure you add cooked rice as uncooked rice will soak up a lot of the liquid.
  • Serve with a side salad and some crusty bread or cornbread!
