2 cups of red potatoes or sweet potatoes

1 cup uncooked quinoa, rinsed (optional)

3 cups of chicken or vegetable stock

Heat a large heavy bottom pot on a stove, add oil or butter

Add your choice of Zinn Farms pork for 4-5 minutes, until browned

Add diced tomatoes, tomato paste, potatoes, quinoa, and vegetable stock and bring to a boil.

Season to taste

This stew is very forgiving. I change the volume and combination of vegetables and potatoes each time I make it depending on what I have handy in my kitchen. Use home-made stock with Zinn Farms chicken bones for best results.

Try making a double batch and freeze for later.
