Overstuffed sausage and vegetable stew
This hearty, savory stew packs in the flavor with jumbo beans and a garden full of veggies.
Have you ever been really, really hungry, and had some angel place a steaming bowl of hot stew in front of you, loaded with everything but the kitchen sink? Well, here it is, and you can recreate it in your own kitchen. How cool would that be, to serve up this bowl of heavenly stew when someone you love comes home famished?
The trick with good stews is to load them up with umami. Sautéed onions, garlic and mushrooms start this stew off on the right note, and the sausage (I used vegetarian) or meat bones intensify that flavor even more. The boatload of veggies adds a whole mix of flavors, textures and chunky goodness to fill up your spoon.
The king of this stew is the Fordhook lima bean, an oversized bean that’s full of fiber and tastes great even without all the stuff going on around it, but surround it with fabulous flavors and it’s over the top delicious. Go for it – and enjoy!
