How to Make Stuffed Pepper Soup in a Crock Pot
Aunt Lou here.
I do not really know how to express in words how much my family loved this Crock Pot Stuffed Pepper Soup. Multiple people went back for seconds, and even my child who is a picky eater finished her bowl and proclaimed that it was amazing! It was a huge win in my house, and I hope it is in yours as well.
Because lean ground beef costs quite a bit more than 80/20 ground beef, one option is to use 80/20 instead of lean. However, if you want to keep this recipe really beefy while keeping costs down, I have a tip. One thing I like to do is watch for sales on the three pound 80/20 ground beef logs. With the higher fat content, you don’t have quite as much meat per pound as you do with a pound of lean ground beef. However, I prepare the three pounds with our Crock Pot Make Ahead Ground Beef recipe and divide it in half. Then I use each half in place of one pound of lean ground beef. By buying the 80/20 when it is on sale, I can still save a couple bucks per half (versus the price of lean ground beef) while keeping about the same amount of meat as the lean.
