Stuffed Pepper Soup Made Right Way

Brown the Italian sausage and ground beef in a saucepan or casserole set over medium heat; separate as you go.

Add onions and peppers midway of browning; tossing many times. Cut heat to medium-low for the final minute of browning and swirl frequently adding chopped garlic. Empty out the extra fat.

To the salsa, add the tomato, chicken, and beef broth; simmer. Simmer until the peppers soften, 15 minutes or more.

Add the rice; thoroughly coat. Cook covered for five to seven minutes, or until the rice comes soft. Eat fast for optimal benefits. Taste as you season with freshly ground black pepper and kosher salt.
