Step 1: Cook the Beef
Heat up a tablespoon of olive oil in a big pot.
Throw in the beef and sprinkle some salt and pepper on it.
Keep stirring until the beef turns brown. Take it out of the pot and put it aside.
Step 2: Time for Veggies
Add another tablespoon of oil to the pot.
Toss in the onion and peppers and cook ’em for a bit.
Add the garlic last, cook for a little longer.
Step 3: Mix It All Together
Dump in the tomatoes, sauce, and beef broth.
Add the cooked beef and those yummy herbs.
Turn up the heat until it starts to boil, then turn it down low. Let it simmer for about 30 minutes.
Step 4: What About Rice?
While the soup is doing its thing, cook the rice like it says on the package. When everything’s ready, mix the rice into the soup. Or, you can just add rice to each bowl if you want.
Step 5: Serve It Up
Spoon the soup into bowls. If you want, add some cheese and a bit more parsley on top.
