Ingredients

Scale

  • 3 bell peppers (red, green, yellow), diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 (14.5 oz) can diced tomatoes

  • 1 cup cooked white rice
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1 tsp dried basil

  2. Add ground beef to the pot and cook until browned, breaking it up with a spoon.
  3. Stir in minced garlic and diced bell peppers. Cook for an additional 5 minutes until peppers begin to soften.

  5. Bring soup to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer uncovered for 20 minutes.
  6. Stir in cooked rice and season with salt and pepper. Simmer for another 5 minutes to heat through.
  7. Serve hot, optionally topped with shredded cheese or fresh parsley.

Notes

For a vegetarian version, substitute ground beef with cooked lentils or plant-based crumbles and use vegetable broth instead of beef broth.
