Cabbage-Leek Stew

Was trying to make soup and this happened. 

The end product? A hearty stew with brown rice, cabbage, limas, leek, carrot, celery, onion, fennel, and white beans. 

Pretty tasty I must say! 

Ingredients: 

3 carrots; peeled and chopped

2 celery stalks; chopped

1 onion; diced

1/4 fennel; finely chopped

1/2 cabbage; chopped

1 leek; chopped 

1 carton vegetable stock 

1/2 c. Water

1 c. Brown rice

1 14 oz. can of cannelloni beans 

1 c. Lima beans (mine were already cooked)

1 tbsp. minced garlic 

1 tsp. crushed red pepper

1 tbsp. vegan butter

Salt and pepper 

Directions:

Sautée garlic, onion, celery, and carrots  in vegan butter for 5-7 minutes until soft. 

Add other vegetables (except cabbage) and cook for 5-7 more minutes. 

Add stock and seasonings and cabbage. Bring to boil. 

Add rice and beans and simmer for 45 minutes. 

Once done, voila! 

Stew on,
