Blue Ribbon Recipe

Cooler weather means more soups on the menu and this recipe should be added to your rotation. It's basically a stuffed bell pepper in soup form. What really makes this soup a bit different is the tomatoes with the jalapenos. The red peppers mixed with the onions adds a slight sweetness to the soup. By the time the rice is added, this soup is thick and hearty almost like a stew/soup. A big bowl of this on a cold night would be the perfect meal.
