Mom’s Vegetable Stew

Mom’s Vegetable Stew


My precious mom devised this for me when I first became vegetarian, almost 21 years ago, and she didn’t understand that but wanted to support it and be able to cook for me

*Filling and Delicious
Can have with a salad too or some nice whole grain Italian type bread
I love it hot, warm, or cold from fridge!
Even on a sandwich!

Add a little oil to a pot, and add garlic powder. Hot pepper (flakes) optional.

Blend one 28 ox. can crushed tomatoes in blender.

Add to pot and put gas on. Add 1/2 can of water.

Add two peeled potatoes, cut into pieces.

Add baby carrots and 1 pkg. frozen string beans.

Can also add 1 small can Le Seur peas.

let simmer for at least 1 1/2 hours – and test carrots with fork to make sure they are tender.

While simmering, stir every once in a while.

***It is much better than it sounds, and “sticks to your ribs.”
