Ingredients

The following ingredients have 8 Servings
  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 yellow onion (diced)
  • 3 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 4 cups beef broth
  • 2 29 oz. cans tomato sauce
  • 1 green bell pepper (diced)
  • 1 red bell pepper (diced)
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon dried basil
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 1  cup instant rice (uncooked)
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

Instruction

  • In a large skillet, add the ground beef on medium-high heat.
  • Brown the ground beef in larger chunks than you would if it were taco meat.
  • When browned, remove the beef and drain all but a tablespoon of the fat.
  • Add in the onion and garlic and cook for 2-3 minutes, when they've wilted but not browned.
  • Add all the ingredients except the cheese into your slow cooker and cook on low for 5-6 hours.
  • When ready to serve add in the cheddar cheese into the slow cooker, and scoop on more of the soup on top of it.
  • Don't stir or the cheese will disappear into the soup.
