Stuffed Pepper Soup
Stuffed Pepper Soup is an inexpensive and delicious soup that will warm your belly from the inside out. Tender sausage and ground beef are simmered in beef broth with peppers, and tomatoes. Add in your rice and serve it hot!
This easy stuffed pepper soup recipe is a family favorite (along with cabbage roll soup) and it reheats beautifully!
I love the combination of beef and rice in soups, Cabbage Rolls and even in side dishes like Dirty Rice! We often make Stuffed Peppers because we love the flavors but as the weather turns cooler I tend to make a lot of soup recipes!
This easy Stuffed Pepper Soup is quick to make (and less prep work than traditional stuffed peppers) but still has tons of flavor! While many stuffed bell pepper recipes use only ground beef, I find the addition of sausage adds a lot of great flavor. Of course this recipe is perfect made with just ground beef (or even ground turkey if you’d prefer).
I use red and green peppers but you can use whatever you have on hand. Red, yellow and orange peppers tend to be sweeter while a green peppers are a bit more zesty. If you prefer a Spicy Stuffed Pepper Soup, add in a minced jalapeno pepper with the bell peppers.
One of the things I like best is that this homemade stuffed pepper soup can be made with any leftover ingredients you might have on hand! Leftover rice, ground beef, ground sausage, leftover burgers or meatloaf or peppers that you need to use up can save you time (and money)!
How To Make Stuffed Pepper Soup
Stuffed pepper soup only takes about 35 minutes and can be made in just one pot with only a few minutes of prep!
- Brown beef, onions, and garlic in a large pot. Drain.
- Add remaining ingredients except rice and simmer 25 to 30 minutes.
- Finally, stir in the cooked rice and parsley and heat about 5 minutes.
See? It’s seriously that simple!
You can make stuffed pepper soup in the crock pot if you want to cook it while you’re out and about. Adjust your cooking times to 3-4 hours on high or 5-6 hours on low. Add the cooked rice for the last 20-30 minutes.
Stuffed pepper soup can be made in batches and frozen, it reheats really well. I love freezing it in individual servings and enjoying it when the weather cools down!
Stuffed pepper soup is similar to my Hamburger soup recipe, in that it is tomato and beef based, and packed full of veggies! I use beef and sausage but feel free to use ground turkey or turkey sausage for leaner options. If you’d like a low carb stuffed pepper soup, swap out the rice for cauliflower rice. This stuffed green pepper soup only has around 250 calories per serving, making great choice for lunch or dinner!

Watch Elon Musk’s Boring Co. Run a Massive Tunneling Machine With an Xbox Controller
Here’s a novel use of technology.
While Elon Musk has been having a pretty crappy couple of weeks—slammed for smoking weed on Joe Rogan’s show, lost members of Tesla’s board—he’s still got some interesting stuff going on, like sending giant machines into the earth to make tunnels for super-fast trains.
Let’s be frank, running those huge machines with an Xbox controller sounds like an idea from someone who just smoked a bomber joint. Yet it’s undeniably amazing to watch.
Electrek explains why Boring Co. workers were even bothering:
Currently, boring machines, including the one used in the Hawthorne tunnel by the Boring Company, require a worker moving around with the tool in order to guide it in the right position, which is both inefficient and dangerous.
It looks like the startup is attempting to find new ways to control and place those sections.
Who knew playing Xbox might lead to such an awesome sci-fi kind of job?
If new ways to run those massive machines end up as simple as attaching them to game controllers, a lot of high school kids might end up with awesome summer jobs, courtesy of the Boring Co.

Paulina Gretzky Deleted Pics of Dustin Johnson From Her Instagram and the Internet Is Shook
The ever-vigilant WAGs-watchers at Barstool caught this: It looks like pics of golf pro Dustin Johnson can no longer be found anywhere in Paulina Gretzky’s Instagram profile.
That’s significant. It means Barstool folks pay unusually close attention to Gretzky’s Insta (who are we to judge?) and it may signal the couple is over and done.
Seriously, Tiger Woods is still there but Johnson is gone? Something is definitely afoot.
Other online publications have taken the tack of posting thumbnails of Paulina Gretzky’s entire feed to prove the point, but we’ll avoid that and just say we believe them.
Gretzky is, of course, is a longtime Maxim favorite, and it’s not like we need to explain why.
We’ve covered this couple in the past, and it’s worth noting that some there are some telltale missing Instas from this post published in 2016.
Our intense 5-minute sleuthing does lend some credence to the assertion that images of the happy couple are indeed gone from Gretzky’s account.
Which is a great reason to remind you how killer that account truly is, regardless of who else is in photos with her.

Ford’s big electric push will start with this Mustang-style crossover
This week, Ford showed off the first teaser image (seen above) of an all-electric performance SUV codenamed “Mach 1.” The drawing comes almost nine months to the day after the company announced the Mach 1 at the Detroit Auto Show, alongside the news that it was upping its investment into electric vehicle technology to $11 billion.
And just like any other official teaser image issued by a big company, we only see what Ford wants us to see, which is that this car is clearly styled like a Mustang, at least to a certain degree. So while this new car is all about what’s next for Ford, the company is also leaning on a product with a proven heritage, which lets Ford leverage a little nostalgia as it points its customers toward the future.
Serena Williams Goes Ballistic Over Umpire Calls, Loses US Open Final
Serena Williams blew up in her losing bid for the US Open title Saturday and many were upset on her behalf—including her opponent and eventual winner of their match, Naomi Osaka.
Chair umpire Carlos Ramos, who first penalized her for receiving what appeared to be signals from coach Patrick Mouratoglou then later for breaking her racket, may have contributed to Williams’ loss. Some observers thought so.
Williams’ responses to the umpire’s calls have been characterized as meltdowns, but that may not be totally fair. She reacted like pretty much any world-class athlete to what she saw as unfair rulings
This from a writer for the Washington Post was typical the pro-Serena camp:
Williams abused her racket, but Ramos did something far uglier: He abused his authority. Champions get heated — it’s their nature to burn. All good umpires in every sport understand that the heart of their job is to help temper the moment, to turn the dial down, not up, and to be quiet stewards of the event rather than to let their own temper play a role in determining the outcome. Instead, Ramos made himself the chief player in the women’s final. He marred Osaka’s first Grand Slam title and one of Williams’s last bids for all-time greatness. Over what? A tone of voice. Male players have sworn and cursed at the top of their lungs, hurled and blasted their equipment into shards, and never been penalized as Williams was in the second set of the U.S. Open final.
Pretty good case, especially the last sentence.
That said, the words Williams spoke in anger sparked less even-handed coverage. She reportedly told Ramos “You will never, ever be on another court of mine as long as you live. You’re the liar. When are you going to give me my apology? Say it! Say you’re sorry! You’re a thief too.”
Some felt she overshadowed Naomi Osaka’s win. Osaka was a model of good sportsmanship through it all, but clearly upset after her win, saying “I know everyone was cheering for her. I’m sorry it had to end like this.”
Williams was compassionate toward her opponent. “I felt bad because I’m crying and she’s crying (…) I was like, wow, I definitely don’t want her to feel like that. Maybe it was the mom in me that was like, ‘Listen, we got to pull ourselves together here.'”
Viewers used social media to vent for and against Williams’ behavior.
In statements following the match, Williams has been clear about what she felt: “I’m here fighting for women’s rights and for women’s equality and for all kinds of stuff. For me to say ‘thief’ and for him to take a game, it made me feel like it was a sexist remark.”
When past umpire reactions to the words and actions of men on the court are compared to Williams’, you can see her case.
Regardless of whether Serena Williams is right about sexism or not, she’s apparently going to pay for this.
Still, it sounds like professional tennis should address issues regarding differing standards for the behavior of players—standards that may be based in gender.
Maybe they’re already overdue.
