Tips:

  • Prep the Peppers: Before stuffing, slice off the tops and remove the seeds and ribs from the peppers. This will help them cook evenly and prevent the soup from becoming too spicy.
  • Use a Variety of Peppers: Experiment with different colors and types of peppers to add a variety of flavors and textures to your soup. Bell peppers, poblano peppers, and jalapeño peppers are all great options.
  • Don't Overcook the Meat: When browning the ground beef, cook it until it is no longer pink, but don't overcook it or it will become tough.
  • Use a Good Quality Broth: The broth is the base of the soup, so it's important to use a flavorful one. Look for a low-sodium broth or make your own using chicken or beef bones.
  • Add Vegetables: Feel free to add other vegetables to the soup, such as diced carrots, celery, or onions. This will add extra flavor and nutrition.
  • Season to Taste: Don't forget to season the soup with salt, pepper, and other herbs and spices to your liking.
  • Serve with Toppings: When serving, top the soup with shredded cheese, sour cream, chopped cilantro, or crumbled tortilla chips for an extra burst of flavor.
