This time of year when the air turns chilly I love to cook hearty stews. I’ve found since having gastric bypass weight loss surgery stews are easily tolerated and a great way to incorporate vegetables and fiber in my restricted diet. There are so many great flavors to explore the palate is engaged and satisfied. One of my favorite recipes is for Chicken & Carrot Stew. It can be prepared in less than an hour and packs a whollop of great flavor and nutrition.
