Contest-Winning Stuffed Pepper Soup image

This is an excellent example of how convenience foods can be combined for a tasty entree. Ready in minutes when I get home from work, this soup becomes part of a balanced meal with a tossed salad, rolls or fruit. For a variation, try chicken, turkey or even venison instead of ground beef. -Tracy Thompson, Cranesville, Pennsylvania
