How To Make Stuffed Pepper Soup:

  1. Brown Meat & Sauté Vegetables: In a large pot or casserole over medium heat, brown the ½ lb of Italian sausage and ½ lb of ground beef, breaking the meat apart as you go. While the meat is browning, add the 1 finely chopped onion and the chopped green and red peppers. Continue to cook, stirring occasionally. During the last minute of browning, reduce the heat to medium-low and add the 3 cloves of chopped garlic, stirring constantly. Drain any excess fat from the pot.
  2. Simmer the Broth: Add the 4 cups of beef broth, 2 cups of chicken broth, and the 1 can of salsa tomatoes. Bring the mixture to a simmer. Simmer for about 15 minutes, or until the peppers begin to soften.
  3. Add Rice & Cook: Add the ¾ cup of raw rice to the pot and stir to coat it well. Cover the pot and continue to cook for 5-7 minutes, or until the rice is tender.
  4. Season & Serve: Season the soup with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. For best results, serve immediately.

Enjoy this hearty and comforting soup!
