When the weather is freezing, there's nothing like a hot bowl of soup to warm you up. Stuffed Pepper Soup is one of these for me. What I love about it is it's filling and gives you a cozy feeling, but is still packed with nutrients.
Consider what's in it: It uses orange, red and yellow bell peppers, whole-grain brown rice for fiber and lean ground beef. It also calls for Vital Proteins Beef Bone Broth Collagen to support healthy hair, skin, nails and joints.** (How about that for a delicious lineup?)
Of course, leftovers are the best and, lucky for you, this soup freezes beautifully. I like freezing it in quart-sized bags and then defrosting it for a quick family meal when we are short on time. It's easy and hassle-free!
