Time 1h20m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

4 tablespoons peanut oil (or Canola)
2 large onions, peeled and chopped
1 small butternut squash, peeled and cubed into 1/2 inch pieces
4 small turnips, peeled and chopped
4 medium potatoes, peeled and quartered
2 large carrots, peeled and chopped
1/2 head cabbage, chopped
2 large tomatoes, seeded and chopped
1 bunch swiss chard, chopped
2 small jalapenos, seeded and chopped
2 cups tomato sauce
water, as needed
3/4 cup peanut butter (creamy or chunky)

Steps:

  • Heat oil in Dutch oven or heavy soup pot over medium-high heat.
  • Add the onions and cook until beginning to brown.
  • Add vegetables one at a time, sauteing each one for a minute or two before adding the next.
  • Stir in tomato sauce and about one cup of water (depending on thickness of stew you desire). Reduce heat & simmer until all the vegetables are tender (15-30 minutes).

I'm not a fan of peanut butter, but I really enjoyed this stew. The peanut butter flavor was subtle and not overpowering.
