Dom’s Kale and Potato Slow Cooker Stew

Dom’s Kale and Potato Slow Cooker Stew

Ingredients:

  • 8 cups of chopped kale (1/2 Large bag of Kale) (Collard Greens work well also)
  • 1 15 oz. cans of white beans, drained and rinsed (or any beans you prefer)
  • 4 cloves of garlic, minced
  • 1 1/2 large onions, diced
  • 4 – 5 large potatoes, cut into chunks
  • 1lb bag of organic frozen kernel corn or 1 Lb. bag of frozen peas
  • 6 cups of low-sodium vegetable broth

  • Spices: Onion Powder, Garlic Powder, Oregano, black pepper, Mrs Dash Original, Bragg’s organic sprinkle spice mix, marjoram, Thyme, Parsely, Turmeric, Coriander, dried seaweed (optional)

Directions:

  1. Turn slow cooker on high and add in 1 cup of vegetable broth, onion and garlic.
  2. Let cook for a few minutes and then add in the potatoes and mix.
  3. Add liberal amounts of spices. then beans, corn, vinegar, remaining vegetable broth, and give a gentle stir.  Put Kale on top. Cover and continue cooking until potatoes and kale are tender.

I usually let mine cook on high for 9-10 hours.

When finished stir well and serve with some hearty whole grain bread

Notes

Try different variations of this recipe by using your favorite veggies. I tend to be liberal with the onions, garlic, and potatoes.

I also use more vinegar than the recipe calls for – probably around ¼ cup
