You know, it’s just been one of those weeks. Nothing seems to be going right and I am sooooo over it. The kids are being demons, the car broke down randomly, I can’t figure out how to play the Pocket Edition of Minecraft so I can teach the kids…I am so behind on work and have twenty unfinished projects just creeping up on me like yo, Karly, get it together already!
Dood, you know I’m trying. But it’s all that that makes me love this One Pot Stuffed Pepper Soup.
I love my Stuffed Peppers, I mean they are freaking awesome. But there are days that I just don’t have the time to wait. But this one pot stuffed pepper soup is on the table in 30 minutes.
Yes, you read that right. 30 minutes to stuffed pepper goodness. ZOMG.
A few things that make it so fast and busy-schedule-friendly:
1|| Diced peppers cook up with the quickness.
2|| The broth cooks up the rice while everything simmers.
3|| Using Hunt’s Diced Tomatoes and RO*TEL take time away from dicing, slicing, de-seeding, and all that other nonsense.
4|| Fire Roasted tomatoes kick up the flavor without having to do it yourself.
The prep is so minimal you’ll be wondering what to do with yourself. It’s like crazy magic. Strange Magic. Or am I just thinking of a movie my kids watch? Whatever, it still works.
What I really really like is that you don’t have to use pre-cooked rice, or even instant rice. Like my Chicken Tortilla Soup, I just have the rice in the pot ready to go. So if you need a delicious dinner done with the quickness, turn a long-cooking, long-time favorite into a fast and easy soup and enjoy your fave flaves with Hunt’s and RO*TEL!
Shall we get cooking? I think so!
