Peanuts and tomatoes may sound like strange bedfellows if you haven’t had much experience with north African cuisine, but in our humble opinion, it’s a combination that merits your attention. The sweetness and acidity pair perfectly with sweet potatoes, creating a rich, flavorful stew that you’ll want more of. Ingredients

  • TOPPING:

    • 1 cup fat-free sour cream

    • ¼ cup fresh chives, minced

STEW:

  • 2 tsp. canola oil

  • 1¼ cups thinly sliced yellow onion

  • ¾ cup bell pepper, chopped

  • 3 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1 cup chopped unsalted dry-roasted peanuts

  • ½ tsp. salt

  • 1 tsp. crushed red pepper

  • 4 cups cubed sweet potatoes

  • 2½ cups quartered red potatoes

  • 2½ cups low-sodium vegetable broth

  • 1 (28 oz.) can diced tomatoes, undrained

*Try replacing canned tomatoes with fresh tomatoes from your garden

Directions

  1. Combine topping ingredients, cover, and store in fridge while stew is cooking.

  2. Heat oil in a large, heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high heat. Sauté onion and bell pepper until tender (4-5 minutes). Add garlic and sauté until fragrant (30 seconds). Add peanuts, salt, and crushed red pepper and sauté until nuts smell toasted (1-2 minutes).

  3. Add potatoes, broth, and tomatoes. Bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat to low, and simmer until the potatoes are tender (45 minutes).

  4. Top stew with sour cream mixture to serve.
