Low FODMAP stuffed pepper soup
When I was looking around on Pinterest a while ago, I came across a soup that I had never heard of before: stuffed pepper soup. I was looking for bell pepper soups and I almost only saw recipes for stuffed pepper soup. Apparently a big hit on Pinterest that I have missed, here in the Netherlands I have never seen it before.
Ingredients that you usually put in a stuffed pepper, such as rice, minced meat, canned tomatoes and of course bell pepper, but then in a soup. I thought it was a really nice idea. It takes a little less time to make than stuffed peppers, but it tastes just as good.
I thought, I want to eat this too, so I created a low FODMAP stuffed pepper soup. A delicious filling soup that can be eaten as a proper meal. And it is ready in just a little more than half an hour.
The ingredients of this stuffed pepper soup
The ingredients of this soup are simple:
- Rice: I used brown rice, for some extra fiber
- Minced meat: I used lean minced meat. You can also use a low FODMAP vegetarian mince if you want to make this soup vegetarian. I like Quorn vegetarian mince.
- Red bell peppers: no stuffed pepper soup without peppers of course!
- A can of diced tomatoes
- Extra vegetables: would you like some more veggies in the soup? Then you can add some other low FODMAP vegetables that you like. For example: canned corn (max. 75 gram per serving), canned mushrooms or pieces of carrot.
- Topping: nothing better than some toppings on your soup. I used some slices of jalapeño pepper, fresh cilantro and some grated cheese. You could also add some lactose-free sour cream as a topping.
