Stuffed Pepper Soup

Stuffed Pepper Soup

I love stuffed peppers but I don’t fix them very often because my peppers always seem to end up to hard and my stuffing is most always dry.

I was surfing the net for recipes and saw this recipe on Chaos in the Kitchen for stuffed pepper soup. Soup! My problems are solved, no more hard dry stuffed peppers. Thanks Katie🙂

This soup really turned out to be super tasty!  I threw a piece of cornbread in mine and all was right with the world.  It’s also pretty low in calories,  200 calories without the rice, 400 calories per serving if you add the rice.
