Chicken vegetable stew

The cold days are behind  us, at least they should be since it is middle of spring but for a few days now it’s been colder than some days in March. At one moment you can’t see a cloud in sight and the sun is up, and then in the next everything changes and the rain cleans the streets while a cold wind chases away the few who wanted to enjoy a day in the park.

Every time it is cold I get that craving for comfort food, something to warm me up and at the same time cheer me up. My family has a lot of stew recipes and the one that is great in spring is Chicken vegetable stew, since spring is the best time to find all kinds of vegetables at your local market.

Easy to make, this hearty stew will warm you up any day of the year. Try it out and share what you think. Thanks for reading and come again for more tasty recipes! 🙂
