Venison Pepper Soup by Amanda Payne

Venison Pepper Soup is a hearty comfort food recipe made with peppers, ground venison, tomatoes, onions, garlic, oregano, basil, and rice and often topped with cheddar cheese or sour cream. It is very similar to stuffed bell peppers but much easier to make. It is the ideal soup for cold weather.

  • 1/2 red bell pepper
  • 1/2 yellow bell pepper
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced

  • Venison Pepper Soup by Amanda Payne

    Venison Pepper Soup is delicious topped with cheddar cheese or a dollop of sour cream. It goes great with a pan of cornbread or saltine crackers or a nice buttery grilled cheese sandwich. Yum, yum!

    For a thinner soup, add more broth or use less rice. This recipe is already spicy, but if you're looking for more heat, add cayenne pepper, red pepper flakes, or some chopped jalapeno peppers.

    If you think you might have leftovers or you're making this recipe for meal prep, keep the rice in a separate bowl and only mix it into the soup when you are ready to eat it. If not, the rice may become too soft.

    You can also cook this recipe in a crock-pot. Cook all ingredients, except for the rice, in the crock-pot. Cook the rice separately. Then mix it into the soup once it's done.
