I used to be a vegetarian in college and couldn't find enough recipes to satisfy my needs. I put this together and it was a wonderful addition to the college fare in the cafeteria!

I was a bit disappointed with this stew. The vegetables were overcooked and the broth was too thin. I think I would have liked it better if I had followed the recipe more closely.

This stew was a bit too bland for my taste. I think I would have liked it better if I had added more herbs and spices. However, the vegetables were cooked well and the stew was very filling.

This stew was okay. It wasn't as flavorful as I had hoped, but it was still a good meal. I think I would have liked it better if I had used more spices.
