Directions:
– Chop 4 cloves garlic. *Do this first and let the garlic sit for 10 minutes. Allowing the garlic to sit after chopping prevents allicin from being destroyed during cooking. Allicin is anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer!
– Add 1/2 cup vegetable broth to a sauté pan, and heat. Add chopped onions, and cook for 5-10 minutes on medium (add vegetable broth as needed), stirring frequently.
– Add garlic & mushrooms, cook for another 10 minutes, stirring frequently.
– Add coconut milk, bell peppers, green beans, chickpeas, kale, and spices. Cook for 10-20 minutes, stirring every few minutes, until you reach the desired consistency and texture.
– If you like spicy, you can add red pepper flakes!
