A cozy and comforting Vegetarian Stew recipe filled with rich flavors and a silky-smooth texture. Gluten-free and vegan!
I figured it was high time I share my favorite Vegetarian Stew recipe! This hearty bowl of goodness has some nice tender chunks of veggies with a silky-smooth stew base I just know you are going to love!
📖 Features
Vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free, nut-free, gluten-free, soy-free and refined sugar-free.
Chunky veggies: What’s a stew without a bit of chunk? We’re using carrots and sweet potatoes here as the base, but feel free to swap out for your favorite chunks of vegetables.
Spices: The savory spice blend used in this stew recipe really complements a variety of vegetables and pairs perfectly with our secret ingredient (below!).
Dijon Mustard: Yes, mustard! Conventional stews tend to use vinegar but I find swapping the vinegar for mustard to add a nice dash of additional flavor that is positively zesty and delicious in this veggie stew.
Tapioca starch: This is what adds that thickened texture that sets stews apart from soups! It can be swapped out for your starch of choice in a pinch.
