*Note: I use the ChopStir Original Ground Meat Chopper, Frozen Juice Concentrate Stirrer, Heat-Resistant Nylon, Made in the USA, Black to chop and ground the meat into tiny pieces. It is a great tool to have on hand for any ground meat recipes.

How to store leftovers
To store leftovers, store in an air tight container up to 3 days in the refrigerator.
Can you freeze stuffed pepper soup?
If you plan on freezing stuffed pepper soup, cook the rice separately.
Freeze the soup in an air tight container.
Defrost and reheat when ready to serve. Add rice to soup when reheating.
If you freeze the stuffed pepper soup with the rice in the soup, the rice may become mushy when you defrost and reheat the soup.
