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.
