Tuscan White Bean Stew with Orange
Hi. It's Lois in the kitchen at Recipe Idea Shop, telling you about Tuscan White Bean Stew with Orange. This flavorful ragout originally comes from Robin Robertson's Vegan Planet. I really cannot remember what, if anything, I changed in the recipe.
Robertson has some of the best vegetarian and vegan cookbooks on the market. Her recipes are always terrific. Try making this in your Instant Pot. Don't have one? You are really missing out. I suggest you get one.
The orange juice and rosemary add a lightness and depth to the vegan stew. It is filling and good for you! Add a glass of wine, pair the meal with some sliced Gala apples and a piece of dark chocolate, and your meal is complete.
