Ingredients
Instructions
-
Heat a large pot over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef and use a spatula to break it up. Season with salt and pepper. Cook the beef until browned, stirring occasionally. Once fully cooked, drain the beef and transfer to a paper towel-lined plate. Set aside.I recommend using 90% lean ground beef so that you don’t have any leftover grease to remove from the pot. If you use 80% ground beef, you’ll need to drain the pot before adding the veggies to sauté. You can substitute ground turkey or ground chicken for the ground beef.
-
Heat the oil in the pot, then add the onion and bell pepper and saute for 3 to 4 minutes, until softened. Add the garlic, basil, oregano, and thyme and saute another 30 seconds.
-
Add the ground beef back to the pot along with the diced tomatoes, tomato sauce and beef broth. Cover the pot, bring to a simmer, then reduce the heat to low, and stir occasionally for 20 minutes.Â
If you haven't yet pre-cooked your rice, you can cook it while the soup is simmering. -
Stir in the cooked rice. If you'd like a slightly thinner soup, feel free to add more broth. To serve, ladle into bowls and top with freshly chopped parsley.
