Ingredients
  

  • 4 Cups Veggie Broth
  • 2 Tbsp Butter
  • 2 Tbsp All Purpose Flour
  • 2 Cups Baby Bella or Button Mushrooms quartered
  • 1 Sweet Onion large
  • 2 Carrots large pieces
  • 3 Yukon Gold Potatoes large pieces
  • 1 Tbsp Dried Thyme
  • 1 Bay Leaf
  • 2 Tbsp Balsamic Vinegar
  • Salt to taste
  • Black Pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • Chop the mushrooms into quarters or halves depending on the size. Chop the Onions, Carrots, and Potatoes into large pieces.
  • In a large pot, dry sauté the mushrooms over medium heat. Until the mushrooms are browned and moisture is reduced. This could take 5-10 minutes depending on the moisture level in the mushrooms.
  • Add 2 tablespoons of butter, along with the onions and sauté until the onions are slightly tender.
  • Add dried thyme and stir to combine, allowing the thyme to infuse the butter and coat the onions and mushrooms. Then add 2 tablespoons of all purpose flour.
  • Then add 4 to 5 cups of vegetable broth or water.
  • Add a bay leaf along with carrots and potatoes.
  • Add ground black pepper, salt, and balsamic vinegar. Stir to combine.
  • Cover the pot, and bring it to a boil over medium heat. Once boiling, lower the heat to simmer, and simmer for 8-10 minutes or until the carrots and potatoes are cooked through.
  • Check for seasoning and adjust if needed.
  • Serve with a hearty bread.
  • Enjoy!

Notes

  • Dice potatoes evenly for uniform cooking
  • Let the stew simmer gently to develop depth of flavor
  • Taste and adjust salt after simmering—broth strength varies
  • The stew thickens more as it cools
  • Stores well in the fridge for up to 4 days
