3 Large bell pepper ( I like to use the colored peppers)
1 onion
2- 14 oz cans of beef broth
2- 10 oz cans of tomato soup ( I used Progresso Tomato Basil)
1- 28 oz can crushed tomatoes
1 1/2 cups cooked rice ( I used brown rice )
salt, pepper, minced garlic (I used minced in jar and fresh that I pressed),
red pepper flakes to taste
In stockpot ground meat and drain. Add all seasonings to taste, bell peppers, and onion over medium heat for about 5 minutes. Stir in broth, soup, and tomatoes and bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 30 minutes (stirring occasionally). Add rice and heat through.
**received this recipe from my shower, but added some seasonings I use in my stuffed peppers.**
I also used Trader Joe's frozen colored bell peppers that are already cut into strips. I just thawed them and cut them into smaller pieces. Also from Trader Joe's I used their frozen already cooked brown rice. Heats in three minutes in the microwave...so easy and very tasty. I actually used a lot of organic ingredients, but I'm sure the taste is the same, just a little healthier.
The meal is delicious and a hit with my husband! For kids, you might want to limit the amount of the red pepper flakes.
