This recipe originally called for 🐓, but I decided to incorporate the use of high fiber beans and savory mushrooms 🍄 instead. Everyone must listen to their body, and I know my body tells me it really appreciates legumes and mushrooms. When cutting down on meat consumption, it’s important to pay attention to foods that are high in choline and amino acids, such as tryptophan. I try to stick with plants that do just that, while adding other important nutrients that help my body produce collagen and absorb calcium. Healthline: Top Foods with Calcium

The flavors of this stew hit all the right places: savory, spicy, sweet, salty. We felt full and satisfied this night. My husband may have even asked for a Pasillo waltz afterwards. ❤️
