ZUCCHINI SQUASH AND POTATO STEW



Zucchini Squash and Potato Stew image

A recipe from my Italian family. Serve with a good Italian bread. Flavor is improved when refrigerated overnight and can keep for a few days in fridge. If stew becomes too thick, can thin out with some chicken broth. I have substituted a 14.5-16 ounce can of diced tomatoes (fire roasted or plain) for the cup of tomato sauce and cup of water or broth.

As the weather turns chilly, my tastes immediately turn to comforting stews and thick soups. Though I am not a vegetarian, I enjoy having meatless meals a couple of times a week. Saw this one on cooking Light and wanted to post it for future reference. For those on the WW Core program, the stew is Core plus points for the feta garnish.

Tips for Cooking Zucchini Squash and Potato Stew

  • Choose the right zucchini. Look for zucchini that are firm and have a deep green color. Avoid zucchini that are soft or have blemishes.
  • Cut the zucchini into even-sized pieces. This will help them cook evenly.
  • Use a large pot or Dutch oven. This will give the stew plenty of room to simmer.
  • Add plenty of vegetables. In addition to zucchini, you can also add other vegetables such as potatoes, carrots, celery, and onions.
  • Use a flavorful broth. Chicken broth or vegetable broth are both good options.
  • Season the stew to taste. Add salt, pepper, and other seasonings to taste.
  • Simmer the stew for at least 30 minutes. This will allow the flavors to meld and the vegetables to become tender.
  • Serve the stew hot. You can garnish it with fresh herbs or a dollop of sour cream.
