Ingredients

  • 1 medium yellow onion sliced
  • 8 oz. sliced mushrooms I like using a combo of cremini and shitaake
  • 4 garlic cloves minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 tablespoon arrowroot starch tapioca starch, or cornstarch
  • 1 cup vegetable broth
  • 1 cup unsweetened unflavored dairy-free milk
  • 1 can (15 oz) white beans I love using cannelloni beans
  • 2 cups baby greens like baby chard, arugula or spinach
  • 1 tablespoon tamari or soy sauce
  • 1 juiced lemon juiced
  • Salt and pepper to taste (I used about 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper)
  • ¼ cup fresh basil sliced, to garnish

Instructions

  • In a medium saucepan over medium heat, add 1 tablespoon avocado or olive oil. Add the onion and mushrooms, and saute for about 6 to 8 minutes, or until slightly browned and caramelized.
    1 medium yellow onion, 8 oz. sliced mushrooms
  • Add the garlic and thyme. Cook, stirring constantly, for one minute, or until fragrant.
    4 garlic cloves, 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
  • In a separate small bowl, whisk the starch with a splash of broth, then mix that into the rest of the vegetable broth.
    1 tablespoon arrowroot starch, 1 cup vegetable broth
  • Pour the broth and milk into the pan and add the beans. Cook for 5 minutes at a low simmer, until slightly thickened and warmed through.
    1 cup unsweetened, 1 can (15 oz) white beans
  • Mix in the greens and cook until wilted, about 1 minute, and then mix in the tamari and lemon juice. Add salt and pepper to taste. Top with basil.

  • Enjoy over rice, quinoa, pasta, greens, with toast, or all on its own.

Notes

  • Storing leftovers: this stew will stay good in an airtight container in the fridge for about 4 days.
  • To reheat: add the bean stew to a pan over the stove on low-medium heat, stirring frequently until the beans are warmed through. If needed, add a splash of water or broth while the stew heats. You can also add to a microwave-safe bowl and cover. Microwave for a minute or two, stirring every 30 seconds, until warmed through.
  • Nutritional facts were calculated using unsweetened, unflavored soy milk. A different kind of dairy-free milk may yield slightly less protein (about 13 grams) and different nutritional results.
