Stuffed Pepper Soup

Ingredients:

• 1 lb grassfed ground beef
• 1 cup chopped red / green bell peppers
• 1 cup finely diced onion
• 3 cloves garlic, chopped
• 2 cans of petite diced tomatoes
• 1 jar of tomato sauce (2 cups)
• 2 cups chicken stock or broth
• 1/2 tsp dried marjoram
• 1/2 tsp italian seasoning
• salt / pepper to taste
• 3 cups of cooked brown rice – I like basmati

In large pot or dutch oven, brown ground meat and onion over medium-high heat.  Add peppers and garlic.  Reduce heat and cook for about 5 minutes.

Add tomatoes, tomato sauce, chicken stock, marjoram and seasonings.   Cover and simmer on low heat for 30 minutes.  Serve in bowls and top with about 1/2 cup of brown rice.  Enjoy.

I fed 4 people with 1/2 of this recipe and froze the other half.  Great to have in the freezer for a cold day!
