Three Sisters Stew Recipe
I wanted to try this for a while and finally went looking for a recipe. I read three or five recipes and didn't quite like any of them, so the recipe behind the cut is my recipe, kit-bashed from the ones that I read. I LOVE how it turns out. I only just realized that I don't have this in my LJ, and wanted to, so I'm posting it.

Add 2 cans of water. Chop and add sage and thyme. Let boil/simmer until it cooks down to thickness, stirring occasionally. Add salt when nearly cooked down. Taste and adjust as needed. Makes about 10 cups. Serving of about 1 cup is about 175 ca.
