  • 12 ounces frozen cauliflower rice

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Heat a large pot or dutch oven to medium and add in the ground beef, half the salt and pepper.
  2. Brown the ground beef, then remove and set aside.
  3. Add in the olive oil and butter, then once melted, add in the onion, peppers and remaining salt and pepper. Sauté for a few minutes to until slightly softened and just starting to get some color.
  4. Add in the garlic and sauté for 15 seconds, then pour in the diced tomatoes, dried thyme, tomato sauce, tomato paste, browned ground beef and beef broth. Simmer uncovered for 15 minutes, then stir in the cauliflower rice and cook for another 5 minutes.
  5. Add in the parsley and serve.

Notes

  • This soup is on the thicker side and personally I think it's much better that way.  If you prefer a more brothy soup, you can either simmer it with a lid on or add 1-2 cups of additional beef broth.
  • If you only have fresh cauliflower rice, add it in during the last 10 minutes of simmering, instead of the last 5.
