    Notes

    Feel free to experiment with other veggies like mushrooms or sweet potatoes for a different flavor.
    Substitute chicken broth for vegetable broth if you prefer.
    Pair with some crusty bread for an even heartier meal.
    This stew also freezes well, making it great for meal prep.
    I often add a pinch of this or that just to play around.
    Adding a new veggie or seasoning can give it a new twist.
    Make it your own witchy creation! 🧪✨
