Another good soup recipe. I didn't want to measure so I just threw in 1 onion, 2 bell peppers, 1 pound ground beef, closer to 1/2 cup dry rice, and 2 cans beef broth (instead of water),and no cinnamon. It is worth making again. Read More

If you are a salt-o-phobe as I am ignore your instincts. Add the salt. A bland soup without it. Read More

Omit the cinnamon and sugar (I don't know about you but I don't put either in my stuffed peppers...) use beef broth instead of water use twice as much meat twice as much garlic add Worcestershire sauce and a good amount of Montreal Steak Seasoning. Now a five star excellent soup that lives up to its name. Read More

I love stuffed peppers and I really enjoyed this soup. I made it for my husband and another couple and 3/4 went back for a second bowl. The only reason it didn't get five stars is the cinnamon. I put in less than half of what the recipe calls for and I still thought the cinnamon was too overpowering. I'm sure I will make it again soon -- sans cinnamon. Read More

This was really good. I doubled the recipe. Instead of 6 cups of water I used 4 cups beef stock an extra cup of tomato juice and a 15 oz. can of tomato sauce. Per other reviews I did not add the cinnamon instead I added a tsp. of crushed red peppers for some zip... definitely a recipe to make again. Read More

Very good. Tastes even better the second day. The cinnamon is a nice twist. I added 3/4 lb. hamburger could use up to about 1 lb. Will definitely make again. Read More
