  • 3 cubanelle peppers
  • 2 (14.5 oz) cans petite diced tomatoes
  • 2 (23.2 oz) cans tomato soup
  • 4 cups beef broth
  • 1 jar of chunky pasta sauce (I use Classico Italian Sausage with Peppers & Onions)
  • 1/4 cup fresh chopped basil

Instructions

  • In a large pot heat 1 Tablespoon olive oil over medium heat and cook sausage and ground beef. Once the meat is cooked make sure it is thoroughly chopped up. Drain and set aside.
  • Heat remaining 2 Tablespoons olive oil and cook onions and peppers for about 5 minutes, then add garlic and saute 30 seconds longer. Pour in diced tomatoes, tomato sauce, tomato soup, beef broth, Parmesan cheese, all remaining spices and cooked meat. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Bring just to a light boil, then reduce heat to low, cover and simmer, stirring occasionally, 30 minutes.
  • While soup simmers, prepare rice according to directions listed on package. When the soup is done simmering stir in desired amount of cooked rice into soup. Serve warm topped with optional cheese and garnish with fresh parsley.
