Instructions
- In a large Dutch oven add the olive oil and butter and melt over medium heat. Add the ground beef and cook for about 3-5 minutes until the meat is browned, breaking it up as you cook.
- Stir in the onion, carrots, celery, and bell peppers to the pot and cook for another 3 minutes until the onion softens. Add the garlic and cook for another 30 seconds until aromatic.
- Stir in the tomato paste and then the rice. Add in the dried oregano, basil, salt, pepper and beef bouillon. Pour in the beef broth, diced tomatoes and stir. Bring to a boil then reduce heat to simmer and cook for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. The soup will thicken as the rice cooks.
- Taste for seasoning and adjust as necessary with salt and pepper. If the soup is too thick, add more broth as necessary.
- Ladle into bowls and serve with grated Parmesan cheese.
