Recipe request and TNT recipe

[Guest guest]

Hi,

 

My boss, who is also vegetarian, is looking for tried and true main dish recipes

for Christmas. They had a nut loaf for Thanksgiving so they're looking for

something a little different and they're feeding a crowd of veggies and

non-veggies. I've also included one of my favorite recipes from Vegan Planet,

it's a delicious stew, great served with crusty rolls and a salad.

MARJORAM-SCENTED ARTICHOKE AND CHICKPEA STEW

 

1 15-ounce can garbanzo beans (chickpeas), rinsed, drained

1 small red pepper, seeded, 1-inch pieces

 

2 cups vegetable broth

 

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

 

1 lb yukon gold potatoes, peeled, 1-inch cubes

 

1 15-ounce can artichoke hearts, drained, coarsely chopped

 

1 teaspoon marjoram, dried

 

1/2 cup dry white wine

 

1 large sweet yellow onion, chopped

 

salt and pepper to taste

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Heat olive oil, and cood onion until softened, about 5 minutes. Add bell pepper

and garlic, and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the bay leaf and

marjoram. Stir in the wine. Add the broth and bring to a boil. Add potatoes and

salt and pepper. Reduce heat to low, and simmer until potatoes are tender, about

20 minutes.

 

 

 

Stir in the artichoke hearts, and chickpeas. If a thicker stew is desired, puree

1 cup of the mixture in the blender and stir back into the pot. Simmer until

heated through.
