Simple Ingredients in the Sweet Pepper Soup
This is a super easy one pot meal. Get out the soup pot and let’s get cooking.
- Olive Oil
- Ground Meat. I prefer to use a lean ground beef such as a ground chuck. However, ground chicken, or ground turkey would be a great substitute in this recipe.
- Tomato Soup
- Tomatoes, Diced. Fresh garden tomatoes can be used in place of this.
- Celery, Diced
- Onion, Diced. Yellow onion, white onion, or red onion word well for this recipe.
- Garlic, Minced. If you are out of fresh garlic, go ahead and substitute a teaspoon of garlic powder.
- Sweet Peppers, can be green peppers, sweet red bell peppers, yellow peppers or even mini peppers
- Chicken Broth. If you do not have chicken broth, use a combination of chicken bouillon and water.
- Granulated Sugar
- Rice. White or brown rice can be used. Even if you have leftover rice or pre-cooked rice, that would work in this recipe.
- Water
