the coziest of Fridays is happening in my apartment. there aren’t that many leftovers because 1. we were super hungry lol and 2. i didn’t make too much food this year because there were only four of us. so, i decided to put a pot of Spicy Veggie Pasta Stew on the stove and let it cook away while i make my upbeetandkaleingit holiday gift guide, which is coming soon! this is one of my throw everything into the pot kind of meals and the cooking process takes pretty minimal effort!


where does the spicy component come from?! a healthier for you sriracha sauce! i used the brand yellowbird, which i buy at Whole Foods. it’s kind of embarrassing how much we go through but if you try the sauce, i think you will get what i’m saying!


this recipe yields a lot! when i first created the recipe on paper before i actually made it, i envisioned a little more of a soup consistency rather than a stew. but ya know what, i’m glad it turned out thick like a stew because it’s so much heartier and fun to eat!

have a great rest of your friday and i hope you all have a safe and relaxing weekend! π

i wanted to make this tonight but i am confused on how much veggie broth to you as the ingredient list says 1 cup of vegetable broth and 64 oz of veggie broth? aren’t these the same thing?
hi! if you check out the directions-you need 64 oz + one cup! add them at separate times. hope that helps π
