PEANUT STEW WITH SPINACH & SWEET POTATOES

Peanut Stew with Spinach & Sweet Potatoes image

This vegan, Senegalese stew makes a rich and comforting winter warmer. Creamy peanut butter thickens the soup with a deeply flavorful nuttiness that plays well against the sweetness of the sweet potatoes and the spice of the cayenne. I doubt your guests will miss the meat as this combination of ingredients makes this dish super hearty and filling. This one-dish meal needs no accompaniment but a light and crunchy green salad with a simple vinaigrette will amp the veggie presence for your dinner. Pack in a thermos for a hot and tasty lunch on the go. This dish makes a great starter for a dinner party. Divide your servings in half so your guests aren't full before the main course is served. Then you have 12 servings in only an hour of work.

Ingredients

2 tablespoons olive oil
1 pound ground turkey
½ onion, chopped
4 cloves garlic, chopped
2 tablespoons minced fresh ginger root
½ teaspoon red pepper flakes
2 sweet potatoes, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
6 cups water, or as needed to cover
2 ¼ cups water
1 (10 ounce) box couscous
½ cup peanut butter
2 cups Swiss chard, cut into 3-inch pieces

Steps:

Heat olive oil in a large soup pot over medium-high heat. Cook and stir turkey, onion, and garlic in the hot oil until turkey is crumbly, evenly browned, and no longer pink.
