For the soup:
4 large peppers (red, green, yellow or orange)

Directions:
Cut off the tops of the peppers and remove the seeds and white membranes. The peppers serve as “bowls” for the soup, so they should be clean inside.

Stuff the prepared peppers with the minced meat and rice filling and set aside.
In a large pot, heat the olive oil and sauté the chopped onion and garlic until soft.
Add the diced tomatoes, vegetable stock, paprika powder, salt, pepper, a pinch of sugar and the bay leaf. Mix everything well.
Place the stuffed peppers in the soup and bring to the boil.
Reduce the heat, cover the pot and let the soup simmer for about 30-40 minutes until the peppers are soft.
Taste the soup and adjust seasonings as needed.
Serve the stuffed pepper soup hot. You can garnish with fresh herbs or a dollop of sour cream if you like.
