Every fall I have a craving for warm nourishing stews and this time around I am planning on making a few again. This stew will keep you warm and healthy as it is packed with nutritious vegetables. The chick peas will add some protein to this delicious veggie stew. Once a week we receive a box of organic veggies delivered to our door. As always, this week’s selection was very good and offered everything I needed to make this lovely stew. I used a base of cherry tomatoes, white wine, garlic, lemon juice and vegetable bouillon. I recommend you serve it with rice.
