Another thing we learned from our Harvest Heroes survey
results was that our first Italian Veg Stew is a big hit. Here’s another easy & adaptable
version.
Make it your own using
whatever veggies you choose. I
used mostly cabbage.

A delish Mediterranean variation is to substitute a 2 oz can
of anchovies in evoo for the salt in this recipe. Add them in w/ the olives. You’ll find you don’t taste the fish, but the umami factor
is wildly increased. This makes
for a great meatless meal served w/ beans & rice or along side your
favorite grilled fare.
