Savory Potato and Pear Stew
This stew was inspired by a vacation - it was time to clear out the fridge, stoke up on immune boosting beta-carotene, and have left-overs in the freezer for a hearty meal when returning.

1 tsp black pepper

Methods/steps
In a 7-quart pot, sauté the carrots, garlic and onion over medium heat for about 5 minutes. If needed, add water or vegetable broth to keep vegetables from sticking.

This is a wonderful recipe, very delicious. It had a really rich taste that was both satisfying and very filling. I did make 3 changes: 1) Along with the yukon gold potatoes I also added a lonely (but fresh)sweet potato I found at the back of the bin, 2) I had no fresh rosemary so instead used 1 T. herbs de provence, 3)To up the protein I added 1/2 cup TVP which added an additional 24 grams of soy protein to the entire recipe.
I know we will enjoy this recipe in the future!

Juice made from fresh, raw fruits and vegetables is tasty, very nutritious and colorful. We often mix the fruit and vegetables in one filling breakfast drink.
