Comfort food

Stuffed Pepper Soup

by Ashley Mullen Leave a Comment

Winter weather has hit Saskatchewan. It is cold out. It is snowing. I am making and eating comfort foods. Warm soups, casseroles, any type of hot meal that I can think of. This is just the tip of the iceberg for the cooking that I am going to be doing this winter. With Austin in school and the temperatures at -20°C, we are all going in and out of the cold. I am packing soup for her lunch, filling her belly up with a hot (warm) meal before she heads outside to play at lunch time.

Plus, I’m trying new recipes, trying to create healthier meals, and make our favorite meals healthier.

The first step in getting healthier is veggies. Mince or press 3 cloves of garlic, 1 chopped onion and two chopped peppers, saute in 2 tbsp of EVOO, until tender.

Add your 1lb ground beef to the pan with your peppers and brown until cooked.
