We love Instant Pot recipes including the most popular recipe on the site, Instant Pot Sloppy Joes and Instant Pot Beef & Cheesy Potatoes.

Instant Pot Stuffed Pepper Soup

If you love stuffed peppers, or even if you’ve never had them and think you would love them, this Instant Pot Stuffed Pepper Soup is for you! The flavors explode in your mouth and the ingredients aren’t expensive at all!

Stuffed peppers have been around for a long time and is currently popular in our house! That’s why I was excited to perfect my new Instant Pot Stuffed Pepper Soup recipe, that takes all of the delicious tastes from the stuffed peppers recipe, but turns it into a soup!

CAN I MAKE THIS INSTANT POT STUFFED PEPPER SOUP THINNER?

If you don’t like a super thick soup, you can add more beef broth to make it thinner, no worries!

DOES INSTANT POT STUFFED PEPPER SOUP FREEZE WELL?

Yes, this soup freezes very well! I like to cook it and put it in a gallon size bag!  It reheats great.   Or…I can prepare it in advance and freeze the ingredients ahead of time, cook it the day I plan to serve it.

CAN I USE A DIFFERENT TYPE OF RICE?

The recipe calls for brown rice, but if you want to use a different kind, you can! Some people prefer Jasmine Rice….and some people even prefer Quinoa! It all works great, but you will need to adjust your cooking times, according to Instant Pot instructions.

Happenings From My Family of 9

This is my husband, my 2 sons and my 16 year old daughter.  They were helping a friend of ours campaign in our local political campaign.  They had just got done driving through a parade, handing out pamphlets and handing out yard signs to anyone wanting to support the candidate.  They have really enjoyed being on the campaign trail helping in any way that they can.  And since we homeschool, I thought it was a pretty cool way to see firsthand some of the things our politicians have to do in a political campaign.

    Thank you so much! As a special needs mommy these recipes have helped us so much.   I often am very busy with being a nurse for our child that I don't have time for making sure we get meals.  This allows me to do all my prep on the weekends, while my husband is home to help, and to cook during the week.  So grateful!

    Sarah’s Freezer to Slow Cooker ebooks have been a fantastic addition to my meal plans.  They make meal planning easy and my family happy. I love the way each recipe is laid out, with a shopping list and ingredient prep list, along with cooking instructions. Sarah’s done all the hard work for me!  The recipes have used have all been delicious and easily adaptable to my family’s taste and the number of people I’m serving.

  • FranOwner of Freezer to Slow Cooker Ebooks
     I purchased all of your freezer to slow cooker ebooks a month or so ago and I'm in love with this way of cooking.  I now have taken all 10 weeks of recipes and written them of my menu planner and then I repeated the 10 weeks and will continue to do so throughout the year.  My family of 5 adults and 1 child enjoy the meals that you have planned and I have cooked and I'm excited that the next time when that meal comes due up in the rotation I won't have to purchase anything but just pull it from the freezer.  Thank you so much

    This makes my life so much easier. I'm a busy work at home/stay at home mom, wife, business woman and I feel like dinner is always the thing I just never get time to do. We have done like 15 of the crockpot recipes from Sarah and they are all very yummy. They get a thumbs up from my husband and kids every time. And there is always enough for my husband to take the left overs at least 2x per recipe. I have a family of 5, 2 adults, 21, 13, 16. So it makes plenty. Thank you Sarah.

    I am a 59-year-old wife and mother of two grown children.  I love your idea of fixing a lot of meals ahead of time and then pulling one out, put it in the crockpot, and you have dinner when you get home.  I hate feeling rushed when I cook so Monday - Friday I use those crockpot meals and make enough that we have lunch the next day.  I take Sunday afternoon, fix up what I need for the week (I don't have a lot of freezer space so I do a week's worth at a time) and I'm done with it!  Saturdays I like to try new recipes from some of my cookbooks which I am finding I can freeze as well!  So you have shown me a whole new way to organize my time and still put a healthy meal on the table.  Thanks so much and I look forward to future blogs.
