Ingredients

• 1 lb ground beef (or turkey)
• 1 onion, diced
• 1 green bell pepper, diced
• 1 red bell pepper, diced
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 can (14.5 oz) diced tomatoes
• 1 can (15 oz) tomato sauce
• 2 cups beef broth
• 1 cup uncooked rice
• 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
• Salt and pepper to taste
• Fresh parsley or basil for garnish (optional)

Instructions

1. In a large pot over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned. Drain excess fat.
2. Add the diced onion, green pepper, red pepper, and minced garlic to the pot. Sauté for about 5 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender.
3. Stir in the diced tomatoes (with their juices) and tomato sauce, followed by the beef broth. Bring the mixture to a boil.
4. Once boiling, stir in the uncooked rice and Italian seasoning. Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let it simmer for about 20 minutes or until the rice is cooked through.
5. Season with salt and pepper to taste. If you prefer a more flavorful soup, feel free to add additional herbs or spices that you enjoy.
6. Once everything is combined, let the soup rest for a few minutes before serving. This allows the flavors to meld beautifully.
7. When you’re ready to serve, ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with fresh parsley or basil if desired.
