This colorful vegan stew is chock full of colorful vegetables.  Sweet potatoes, spinach, and tomatoes combine to create a hearty and healthy stew.  A little bit of peanut butter stirred in, adds to the flavor and offers some protein.  I was excited to serve this up to my family.

I wish that I could say they were as happy to receive it as I was to serve it.  My husband is never excited with Meatless Meals.  He seldom complains but never goes back for a second serving.  The Teen, however, is usually very happy with Meatless Meals.  However, after a bite of this stew she asked me why I would put peanut butter in a stew....she only had one serving as well.  That was fine with me because I enjoyed it thoroughly and had the last serving available as my lunch the following day.
