Most of the ingredients in this quick sweet potato stew are substitutable, meaning you're sure to have everything you need for a delicious and healthy dinner in your fridge and pantry. The key ingredient here is the sweet potato, and then follow this formula: something tomato-based, any canned beans, any liquid (even water!), any nuts, any milk (animal or plant-based), and a handful of spices. If you have fresh herbs, great! But it's delicious even without them.
