A very old fashioned dish mom always made was her signature style Italian Stuffed Peppers and this is a deconstructed version of those made into an Italian Stuffed Pepper Soup.
Mom always added hard-boiled eggs to the mixture, and we all loved the addition.
I serve the eggs as a garnish for those not used to having them in their stuffing.
We also loved them with a side of my Grandmother's famous Tuscan Garlic Bread on the side.
Everyone has a different recipe for a family version of how they make this classic stuffed pepper casserole, the soup can be adapted to your taste.
Some like it spicy so by all means add some heat like freshly cracked black pepper and red pepper flakes to the pot!
The soup is bursting with that old fashioned stuffed pepper flavor and certainly, one of the most comforting soups I have ever made besides Grandma's Old Fashioned Chicken Soup, of course.
I will give you tips, suggestions, and a great way to make a deliciously satisfying meal that taste exactly like the stuffing in the pepper you love just without the bread crumbs, that's what the garlic bread is for.
If you love that bread stuffing, just dunk your garlic bread into this delicious pepper and beef-flavored sauce.
For the absolute best tasting soup please read the kitchen tips first before starting.

Peanut Butter Cake Bars are an easy throw-together recipe great to take on trips, potlucks, picnics, and something mom would make when we had lots of peanut butter in the house to get rid of.
It's an easy recipe for kids to help make and they really love them.
Of course for those with peanut allergies, you can always substitute sunflower or sesame seed butter like Tahini and add some peanut butter nut free flavoring that has no peanuts in it.
There are several choices and recipes for topping these delicious bars also.
We love them with raspberry jello or a peanut butter frosting as shown.
The best part about this recipe is it's all done in one bowl and is a quick peanut butter dessert.
Perfect for school lunches unfrosted as a quick little pick me up!
