Stuffed Pepper Soup - Slow Cooker

This recipe is so simple to throw together. It makes a delicious, mostly hands off and hearty meal. Rice is the typical grain used for this (whatever kind you like), but you could substitute whatever grain you'd like. It's pictured up top with leftover farro.

Ingredient

Food ration :

6 servings

1 tbsp.

olive oil

1 lb.

ground beef (or ground turkey)

1/2

yellow onion, diced

large bell peppers, diced

3 cloves

garlic, minced

1 can (28 oz.)

unsalted crushed tomatoes

1 can (15 oz.)

fire roasted diced tomatoes

1 can (8 oz.)

unsalted tomato sauce

3 cups

unsalted chicken or beef broth

2 tsp.

each Italian seasoning, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce

1 tsp.

salt

1/2 tsp.

each pepper, smoked paprika, dried basil

Cooking instructions

* Step 1

In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Once it's hot, add the ground meat and cook until it is browned throughout. Drain any excess fat if needed.

* Step 2

Grease your slow cooker and place all the ingredients EXCEPT for the rice. Stir everything well and then place the lid on and set the heat to low for 5-6 hours.

* Step 3

To serve, stir in some hot, cooked rice (or other grain) into individual bowls and top with some shredded cheddar cheese and enjoy!

* Step 4

You could also stir the rice into the soup and serve it that way, but since we usually have leftovers, I prefer to store the soup and rice separately so the rice doesn't absorb the majority of the liquid.
