Food for the Season

Here's a yummy dish that fits right in with the colors of October;

Sweet Potato Stew with Orange Juice and Black Beans

Serve over Brown Rice . . .

And you have a delicious orange and black Autumnal meal!


Sweet Potato Stew With Orange Juice and Black Beans

1 large sweet potato. Peel and cut into bite-sized chunks, put in a covered microwavable dish with enough water to cover the bottom of the dish. Microwave for 8-10 minutes, until just tender, but still hold their shape.

While potatoes are cooking:
Chop 1 medium onion; in a large pot sauté onion in 3 tablespoons olive oil; when tender and golden sprinkle 2 tablespoons of flour over the onions and stir to make a roux, cook for about 2 minutes. Add 1 cup orange juice, 1 tablespoon chili powder and 1 tablespoon honey, stir until thick and smooth.

Drain the potatoes and one 15 oz. can of black beans, then add the sweet potatoes and beans to the onion/juice mixture. Stir and cook until heated through.


Serve with brown rice and ENJOY!

Peter Rabbit came to visit my yard this morning! (The white containers are my bird baths.)
Sorry for the poor photography--the sun was shining in the dirty windows and I have a cheap camera.
