Stuffed Pepper Soup

Yum! I can't wait to try this. This is from my best friend from junior high, De'Reen Vyleta.

Stuffed Pepper Soup
  • 2 lbs ground beef
  • 1 med onion chopped
  • 2T chopped garlic
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 3 lrg peppers-cubed
  • 1 lrg can veggie juice (V8) plus 1 can water
  • 1 lrg can petite diced tomatoes undrained plus one can water
  • 2c rice
  • 1T Worcestershire sauce (optional)
  • Salt and pepper to taste
In a large pot on md/high heat, brown beef with onion and garlic.

Season with salt and pepper

Add the rest of the ingredients. Stir.

Bring to a boil stirring often.

Once it reaches a boil reduce heat to simmer (low) and continue to cook for 25 to 30 mins or until rice is cooked through.

Don’t forget to stir occasionally or rice will sink and stick to the bottom.

Snow Ice Cream - Guest Chef

Perfect recipe for a blizzard day - except you actually have to go outside to get the snow...

This is from my super-friend De'Reen Whitney Vyleta. Enjoy!

  • 2 cups milk
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 gallon CLEAN snow

...In a mixing bowl, mix milk and sugar together until sugar is dissolved.

De'Reen used a hand mixer. I'm thinking about trying this in my KitchenAid.

Slowly add the snow to your mixture, stirring constantly until it is as thick as ice cream.
