Notes: For vegetables, include a mix of green and red pepper, celery, carrots. Small cubes of potato or yam, winter squash, or any other vegetables that can keep their shape are good. This is a hearty dish, no one will miss the meat! But if you want, you can add ground turkey or hamburger, sausage or any leftover meat in small dice.
