A tasty, colourful veggie stew.
Ingredients
1 large onion, in 1 cm slices
3 cloves garlic, grated/crushed
1 yellow pepper, quartered & sliced
1 red pepper, quartered & sliced
1 tin chopped tomatoes in juice
2 tsp Splenda
* 2 bay leaves
* handful of fresh basil
1 tsp grapeseed oil
*=optional
Add the oil to a pot along with a little water. Fire in the onions, garlic and peppers then cover with a lid. Steam/fry over a low-med heat until the onion is soft, stirring every so often.
Add the tomatoes, bay leaves and sweetener and simmer uncovered for twenty minutes. If it looks dry, add a tbsp water.
Serve hot or cold (with a hefty sprinkle of chopped fresh basil if available) alongside grilled meat, poultry or fish.
Freezes well.
