This is a favorite warming winter recipe! Satisfying & delicious! Like a HUG in my tummy! Make a double batch to feed the family for several days. Leftover stew can be easily frozen and reheated. This recipe is inspired by the kitchari recipe shared with my by my friend Janice Craig of AlohaNamaste.com. The DoTERRA black pepper oil is a powerful catalyzer for the medicinal properties of turmeric! It's also super tasty!
