Vegan Brunswick Stew (Gluten Free) is inspired by a recipe from the Moosewood Collective.
Recipe Idea: Vegan Brunswick Stew (Gluten Free) Slow Cooker Recipe
Hi. It’s Lois at Recipe Idea Shop, talking about another Moosewood Collective recipe, Vegan Brunswick Stew (Gluten Free).
I am always looking for good vegan or vegetarian, gluten free recipes to share at potluck suppers or work. This is especially important when we have visitors from the Middle East or areas of the world where people have very restrictive diets. And this week our Pakistani Muslim friend, Ishaq Israr, will come to stay with us for the third time. He will be with us for a month while he attends Eastern Mennonite University’s Summer Peacebuilding Institute.
This Vegan Brunswick Stew (Gluten Free) recipe is originally from one of my favorite Moosewood cookbooks, Sundays at Moosewood Restaurant, but of course I modified it to fit what I like to eat and what I have in my pantry. Add a Green Salad and the meal is complete.
You can substitute any kind of bean you like—the original recipe calls for black-eyed peas or lima beans (which are not my favorites). It also called for zucchini and okra, but I had neither so I left them out. At a recent event, this recipe got rave reviews, and I loved it. I will definitely make it again!

Tools
The only special tool you will need is a slow cooker. I have one like the first one, but I’d love to have a programmable model, especially if I plan to be a way for longer than 8 hours!
