Green Pepper Soup
2# browned hamburger (or ground Turkey) with diced onion. Drain & set aside
2 cups precooked brown rice - add later
In soup kettle combine following:
Diced celery (about 1 stalk)
Diced tomato - 28 oz can
Tomato soup - 1 can
Ketchup - 4 oz or 1/2 cup
2 green peppers - seeded & diced about 1/2”
Black pepper, Paprika and Cumin (1/4 tsp each)
Brown sugar - 2 Tblsp
Soy sauce - 1 Tblsp
Garlic granules or powder (1/8 tsp)
Beef broth or stock (28 oz) or make with dry boullion & water to make 3 - 4 cups
Add meat to soup and simmer. Add cooked rice towards end of cooking. Rice is precooked or it absorbs the liquid. Soup is thick and I want it thinned out so I add up to 1 quart tomato juice or V8 juice.
