Brown the peppers before adding them to the soup: This will help to develop their flavor and prevent them from becoming soggy.
Use a variety of fillings: The most common fillings for stuffed pepper soup are ground beef, rice, and vegetables. However, you can also use other fillings, such as turkey, chicken, or sausage. You can also add different vegetables, such as corn, zucchini, or squash.
