Can you freeze instant pot stuffed pepper soup?
Yes. Stuffed pepper is very freezer friendly. The trick is to make sure it is fully cooled before freezing the soup. Otherwise, you will end up with freezer burn. Make sure to read our post on how to freeze soup for more tips.
Can I substitute ground turkey?
You sure can! You can absolutely use ground turkey or even ground pork or chicken in place of the ground beef in this recipe. It is really versatile and will work with whatever ground meat you have on hand!
If you are vegetarian, you can even use meatless crumbles in this recipe. You will also want to swap the chicken broth for vegetable broth. If you are trying to watch your carbs, you can also omit the rice or substitute it for cauliflower rice.
