We just ate this stew in the middle of July. I just couldn’t wait until fall! I love how the flavors complement each other (spices, lemon, & cilantro) and how I get tons of protein & complex carbs all in one vegan meal. Also… turmeric! This superfood reduces inflammation, relieves pain, improves liver function, and aids in your digestion.
