Ingredients

  • 1 Tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 cups carrot chopped
  • 1 ½ cups celery chopped
  • 1 large onion finely chopped
  • 1 Tablespoon garlic minced
  • 4 cups mushrooms diced
  • 5 Cups water or vegetable broth
  • ⅓ cup tomato paste
  • 2 pounds potato peeled and diced, Yukon gold variety
  • 1 ½ Tablespoons paprika
  • 1 ½ Tablespoons Italian seasoning
  • 2 Teaspoons rosemary finely chopped, fresh
  • 1 ½ cups pea fresh or frozen
  • ½ cup parsley fresh
  • salt to taste
  • black pepper to taste

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Heat olive oil in a large soup pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat.
  2. Add the chopped carrots, celery, onions, and cook for 8-10 minutes, stirring frequently
  3. Then add the garlic and mushrooms for another 5 minutes, stirring often.
  4. Add the water (or vegetable broth if using), tomato paste, potatoes, peas, paprika, and Italian seasoning, rosemary, parsley and salt and pepper.
  5. Bring to a boil then lower the heat to medium-low, cover and cook for 30-40 minutes until the potatoes and carrots are tender.
  6. If you'd like a thicker stew, remove 2 cups of the cooked stew and blend into a puree. Then add back into the pot and stir to combine. A immersion blender works well for this as well.

Notes

  • Add other vegetables like squash, sweet potatoes, zucchini, green beans, butter beans and corn.
  • Add ⅛ -¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes or cayenne pepper for a spicy version.
  • Adding cooked pasta or rice. I like to cook that separately and add if desired.
  • Swap the tomato paste for a 14 ounce can of diced tomatoes.
  • Use white potatoes or red potatoes if desired.
  • Use portabello mushrooms or white mushrooms.
