Fall Vegetable Stew with Mint Pesto

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

Fall Vegetable Stew with Mint Pesto | Betsylife.com Detox time! I actually had a pretty low key new year’s eve, but there was still champagne (and pizza) involved, so needless to say I’m still recovering. That’s one of the worst parts about getting older in my opinion; multiple day hangovers.

I’m flying out of the gate in 2014 with a ridiculous amount of new projects on my plate right from the get go. Multiple day hangovers have no place in my busy schedule, so I made this winter vegetable stew with mint pesto to chase away any lingering junk in my system, and to fuel my long days.

I get protein from the beans, fiber from the veggies, and carbs from the potatoes. Talk about well balanced! What are your go-to detox/refuel recipes?

Happy New Year everyone. Let’s do this!
