You choose your type of meat. Or go vegetarian.

You can make this with lean and healthy ground turkey or beef if you prefer. Or you can use a half and half ground beef and ground turkey mixture like I do when I make these healthy stuffed shells.

Want a vegetarian version? Try a meat substitute or use chopped vegetables in place of the meat.

I like to add a little bit of Worcestershire sauce to enhance the meat flavor in this dish, especially when using ground turkey or a plant-based meat substitute.

Serve over rice or healthy quinoa.

I recommend enjoying this soup over rice or go with a bit of a healthier option and use quinoa. If you're trying to cut carbs though, you can skip the rice totally.

To keep this recipe quick and easy, you can go with stovetop minute rice, or packaged pre-cooked microwave rice. I also like to make this soup when I have leftover white rice after ordering Chinese food.

If you are using traditional rice, try cooking your rice quickly using an instapot. It works like a rice cooker to ensure you get perfect rice every time.

If you want to lower your carbs though, go ahead and skip the rice or try this soup serve over cauliflower rice.

This stuffed pepper soup is still really good without any rice at all so you've got options.

Top with Parmesan Cheese.

If you want. You can got with grated Parmesan cheese or I really like shredded Parmesan for this particular recipe. It melts nicely when you sprinkle some on top of a warm bowl right before serving.
