It is filled with bell peppers, onions, rice, and ground sirloin. It is a delicious, nutritious soup, and is a complete meal that will chill you to the bone. My mom used to make this soup to feed us during cold winter days. I have been a sickly child growing up, and I used to fell sick during winter because my body can’t easily adapt to the sudden change of temperature. My mom told me that she was like that when she was young, and my grandma used to make her a soup that helps her cope with the cold.
