For the soup:

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

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