Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    Pretty much anything goes in this recipe, so feel free to add your favorite beans and root vegetables. You may want to try garbanzo beans, whole green beans or sliced turnips or rutabaga.
  • tip 2
    Instead of sprinkling this hearty meatless stew with cilantro, you can top it with fresh chives or shredded or shavings of Parmesan cheese.
