Cooking Steps
• Wash and dry produce. • Halve, peel, and dice onion into 1⁄2-inch pieces. Core, deseed, and dice bell pepper into 1⁄2-inch pieces.
• Heat a drizzle of oil in a medium pot (large pot for 4 servings) over medium-high heat. Add beef*, onion, and bell pepper; stir to combine. • Season with oregano, salt, and pepper. Cook, breaking up meat into pieces, until beef is cooked through and veggies are tender, 4-6 minutes.
Swap in turkey* for beef.
• Add tomato paste to pot with beef and veggies; cook, stirring occasionally, until tomato paste darkens in color, 1-2 minutes. • Add marinara, stock concentrates, couscous, and 2 cups water (4 cups for 4 servings). Bring to a boil, then cover and reduce heat to medium low. Cook until couscous is tender and soup has thickened slightly, 6-8 minutes. TIP: If there’s excess grease on the surface of the soup, carefully skim it off. • Season with salt and pepper to taste.
• Divide soup between bowls and serve.
Ground Turkey is fully cooked when internal temperature reaches 165°.

Reviews from our home cooks
This is very good. Great flavor. I did have to cook it quite a bit longer than it said to get the couscous done, but that may depend on how you like it. Very fast and easy to make also.
I love that this recipe was fast and easy to prep. It was very tasty, not too much salt and had a lot of veggies.
This soup was so easy to make, the flavor was great and it was even better the second day!
Needed more seasoning but maybe that's because I made it with Turkey. Overall it is a tasty soup and would get again.
Very filling meal! The portion sizes were perfect and I'm excited to make this again in the future
A huge hit. Not too bell pepper-y. Tasted like chili plus pasta
I would have preferred orzo instead of the pearl pasta, but the flavors were delicious!
This was amazing! I was on the struggle bus and needed something hardy and delicious and this did the trick! I will definitely cook this again!
This was so good! I'm not even a soup person but wow! And so fast and easy
Not my favorite. We ended up adding kidney beans which made the soup a bit more robust. The soup wasn't as flavorful as I thought it would be, but it was very filling.
