Ingredients:

Serving

1 tbsp olive oil
1 large onion, chopped (about 2 cups)
2 cups chopped cabbage ( see hint below)
3 garlic cloves, minced, up to 4
18 oz canned sweet potatoes, drained and chopped
14 1/2 oz tomatoes, wedges undrained
1 1/2 cups tomato juice
3/4 cup apple juice
1 tsp grated fresh gingerroot, up to 2
1/4 tsp red pepper flakes, up to 1/2
2 cups frozen cut green beans
1/3 cup natural-style peanut butter

Directions:

Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Add onion; cook, stirring, until tender, about 5 minutes.
Mix in cabbage and garlic; cook, stirring, until cabbage is tender-crisp, about 5 minutes.
Stir in sweet potatoes, tomatoes, tomato juice, apple juice, ginger, and red pepper flakes.
Reduce heat to medium-low; cover.
Simmer until hot and bubbling, about 6 minutes.
Stir in green beans and simmer, uncovered, for 5 minutes.
Stir in peanut butter until well blended and hot, about 1 minute.
Serve stew with crusty bread and a salad, or spoon it over rice or mashed potatoes.
HELPFUL HINT: To save time, use packaged cabbage slaw mix instead of chopping up a head of cabbage.
