This is a wonderful stew that is perfect for the cool Fall weather. You can make this recipe ahead of time and freeze until ready to use. Just add all ingredients except chicken broth into ziploc bag. When ready to make just thaw overnight in fridge. Then in morning add to crockpot with chicken broth.
This recipe is also naturally gluten free which I love. I like to prepare it with Gluten Free Cornbread.

Hope this is good, because just put it on. If it’s good, i’m going to love this recipe for I always have all those ingredients either in the pantry, fridge or freeze. Would be a nice ‘go to’ dinner.

This was wonderful! I used black beans, so mine was quite dark and used homemade chicken stock. I think have a good stock/broth makes this recipe, since it takes a bit of its flavor from it. Hubby loved it, 2 year old semi-picky loved it. Will make it again!
