A creamy comforting stew that you can make with pantry items

This Creamy Chickpea and Vegetable Stew is loaded with flavor, but is made with just a few simple ingredients. This stew starts with garlic, onion, and a few warming spices. Then, you add your veggies, chickpeas, broth and coconut milk.

The stew will simmer on the stove for nearly an hour filling your home with the wonderful smell of the spices. I like to serve this stew with some brown rice and a dollop of Greek yogurt. This is a fully plant-based meal so you can top it with plant-based yogurt or my cashew sour cream instead.
