bean and sweet potato stew

It’s a miraculous time of year where it seems like everything we love to eat is in season. We are harvesting beans, corn, squash, onions, potatoes and sweet potatoes. The delights of abundance help soften the raw knowing that the colder months are on their way.

We have been making these delicious stews and I wanted to share one of the recipes with you.

Enjoy!
