Velvety white bean & tomato stew from Big Vegan Flavor: Techniques and 150 Recipes to Master Vegan Cooking (page 492) by Nisha Vora

Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

    Very tasty, hearty, healthy meal full of flavor! I loved prepping it at the beginning of the week and eating it for lunch at work with a side of toasted bread. The notes and information in this book are so helpful, definitely listen about using better ingredients, it makes a difference! Though i do think you can swap certain things if you’re missing something, i.e. using different white beans if you can’t find navy. Not the simplest meal, but certainly not the hardest, it requires more effort than I would say an average soup/stew does (it’s not just “throw everything in a pot for a few hours”) but it’s not as intensive as other meals like Shepard’s pie, I would say it is mild-medium effort. But the more you make it, the easier it gets, and having multiple meals prepped for the week that feel gourmet is worth a little extra effort on prep day. Even my meat-loving husband liked this recipe! Just be careful not to make it too acidic, I felt this depended a lot on the canned tomatoes I purchased. Overall I was obsessed with this recipe for months, 10/10 would recommend!

    This is a great stew. We will make this again. It makes a lot, so we froze the leftovers. I used Nom Nom Paleo's magic mushroom powder.
