By Veronica Grace,
Ingredients
- 10 baby potatoes quartered or 2 medium potatoes cubed
- 1 yam or sweet potato, sliced or cubed
- 2 golden beets or turnips
- 3 carrots peeled and chopped
- 3 stalks of celery, chopped
- 1 onion, diced
- 6 cloves of garlic, minced
- 4 cups of low-sodium vegetable broth
- 8 fresh tomatoes or 1 28 ounce can of tomatoes
- 2 tablespoons sugar or 6 dates blended with water
- 1 teaspoon roasted cumin
- 2 teaspoon Herbs de Provence (or an Italian herb mix)
- 1 teaspoon smoked chipotle powder (optional)
- Salt and Pepper to Taste
Instructions
- Crockpot method: Blend the fresh tomatoes or the canned tomatoes with the herbs and dates or sugar. Taste. Add chipotle seasoning to taste.
- You’re going to choose the sliced option for the yams/sweet potatoes so they don’t completely fall apart in the crock pot. Combine ingredients in crockpot, starting with the carrots at the bottom, then potatoes, beets/turnips, yam, celery, and onions. Pour tomato mixture over top.
- Cook on low for 6-7 hours or high for 5 just until the potatoes are done and the vegetables are tender. Add Herbamare or salt and pepper and taste test and adjust seasonings if desired.
- Serve.
