One of my favorite things about the colder weather is that it is a chance to make a lot of wonderful stews and soups. Sadly, being a vegetarian, there aren't as many recipes out there that I can enjoy. This is one of my favorite crockpot recipes:
Slow Cooker Vegetarian Irish Stew
1 – pkg favorite brand of “crumbles,” or your favorite meat substitute, up to two pounds
2 cups onion, chopped
2 cups potatos, chopped
2 cups celery, chopped
2 cups carrots, chopped
1 cup sliced mushrooms
2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper
1 tsp sugar
3 cups tomato juice/sauce
2 cups canned or frozen peas
Cut up all the veggies (except for the peas) into 2-inch chunks and add to crock pot. Open “crumbles” package and pour on top of veggies in slow cooker. Add the salt, pepper, sugar and tomato sauce. Cook on low for 6-9 hours (I let it go for the full 9 hours because I usually cook this while I’m at work). About 15-30 minutes before you’re ready to eat, add the peas into the slow cooker and let cook for those last 15-30 minutes. Although I always make this in my crock pot, it also can be cooked it in a 250 degree oven for 6 hours.
