This hearty stew is flavorful and filled with immune-boosting nutrients to help prevent you from getting the common cold.
Ingredients:
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 medium onion, diced
5 cloves garlic, minced
1 1-inch piece of ginger, peeled and minced
1 15-ounce can low-sodium chickpeas, drained
4 cups low-sodium vegetable broth
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1/4 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper
1 15-ounce can diced tomatoes
2 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into 2-inch cubes
3/4 cup peanut butter (You can use creamy or crunchy.)
4 cups chopped fresh baby spinach
Directions:
1. In a large pot, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add onions and cook for 3 to 4 minutes. Add garlic and ginger, stir and cook for another 2 to 3 minutes.
2. Add remaining ingredients except spinach. Turn heat to high to bring to a boil. Once boiling, turn heat down to simmer for 25 to 30 minutes.
3. Remove from heat and use a potato masher to mash the sweet potatoes in the stew. (This will thicken it.) Add spinach and stir. Enjoy warm!
