Notes
If you wish to add rice for a more traditional stuffed pepper soup, I recommend cooking the rice separately and pouring the soup over the rice when serving.
Ground turkey can replace ground beef if preferred. If you decide to do this I recommend substituting the beef broth with chicken broth.
