Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onions, carrots, and celery. Sauté for about 5 minutes, or until the vegetables are softened.

    Combine Remaining Ingredients

    Add the diced zucchini, canned tomatoes, vegetable broth, bay leaves, thyme, salt, and black pepper to the pot. Bring to a boil.

  4. 4

    Simmer the Stew

    Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for about 25-30 minutes, or until the potatoes and carrots are tender.

  5. 5

    Finish with Greens

    Remove the bay leaves and stir in the chopped kale or spinach. Cook for an additional 5 minutes until the greens are wilted.
