About this recipe Chopped tomatoes are a brilliant store-cupboard staple to have on standby and tomatoes & basil are a well-known combination that pair really well together. This recipe can all be made in the same pot, so it really just a case of chucking everything in and letting it reduce and work it’s magic! This stew is packed with veggies, but by adding in some tinned chickpeas (or beans of your choice) you can up the protein content a little, but also make the stew a little more filling – perfect for lunch or dinner!
