INGREDIENTS
1 cup Cannellini Beans (240g)
0.75 cup Extra Firm Tofu (150g)
1/2 medium Fennel Bulb (100g)
1 medium Carrot (61g)
1 medium Onion (70g)
2 cloves Garlic (6g)
1 cup Low-Sodium Vegetable Broth (240g)
1 teaspoon Olive Oil (5g)
2 tablespoons Nutritional Yeast (16g)
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
Trim and slice the fennel bulb into wedges. Toss the fennel with the teaspoon of olive oil, and season lightly with salt and pepper.
Spread the fennel on a baking sheet and roast in the preheated oven for about 20 minutes, or until tender and slightly caramelized.
While fennel is roasting, drain and rinse the cannellini beans. Cube the extra firm tofu into bite-sized pieces.
Dice the onion, carrot, and mince the garlic.
In a medium pot, sauté the diced onion and carrot over medium heat with a splash of water or a bit more olive oil if desired, until they begin to soften (about 5 minutes). Add the minced garlic and continue to sauté for another minute.
Add the cannellini beans, tofu cubes, and low-sodium vegetable broth to the pot. Stir in the nutritional yeast to infuse a creamy, umami flavor.
Let the stew simmer on low heat for 10 minutes so the flavors meld together.
Once the fennel is roasted, gently fold it into the stew. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
Serve warm and enjoy the hearty, creamy texture of the stew.
