I have really wanted to make a slow cooker stuffed pepper soup for a while. I love making slow cooker recipes like this because they are so simple to make. And they don’t require you to spend hours in the kitchen! I was inspired to make this because I really love stuffed peppers. The flavor combination is something I enjoy. And I saw other recipes for a soup version and was intrigued.
So often I hear that one of the main reasons people continue to eat packaged, processed and fast food is that it is quick and convenient. And it doesn’t take a lot of time to fix. But there are plenty of meals that are quick and simple to make right at home. Meals that are much healthier and nourishing to your body!
This slow cooker recipe is stuffed pepper soup is very hearty and simple to make. It is great topped with some raw shredded cheddar cheese. Paired it with some homemade cornbread or a nice salad full of fresh veggies. You can also substitute fresh pastured ground sausage for the ground beef if you choose!
This recipe is naturally gluten-free, and if you want to make it grain-free, simply substitute cauliflower “rice” in place of regular rice! So simple!
