      <\/span>Notes<\/span><\/h3>
      Optional protein:<\/strong> For a heartier, higher-protein stew, stir in 1 can (15 oz) of drained chickpeas, white beans, or kidney beans along with the broth. Or add \u00bd cup rinsed brown or green lentils plus 1 extra cup of vegetable broth; they will cook through during the simmer. Browned soy curls, seitan, or extra mushrooms also work (see the post above for details).<\/span>
      <\/div>\nOptional red wine:<\/strong> For a deeper, richer broth, add \u00bd cup dry vegan red wine after the vegetables have cooked for 2\u20133 minutes, and simmer until reduced by about half before adding the remaining ingredients.<\/span>
      <\/div>\nSeasoning:<\/strong> Soy sauce and canned tomatoes are already salty, so taste at the end and add salt and pepper only if needed.<\/span><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":11849,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"wprm-recipe-roundup-name":"","wprm-recipe-roundup-description":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[2506,134,2881,1714,4673,136,1715,2505,2877,2194,697,1713,1712],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-11852","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-dinner","category-american","category-boiled","category-dairy-free","category-egg-free","category-entree","category-gluten-free","category-lunch","category-simmered","category-stew-dish","category-stove-top","category-vegan","category-vegetarian"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/bhiggs.x10hosting.com\/foodie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/OldfashionedVeganStew.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/bhiggs.x10hosting.com\/foodie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11852","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/bhiggs.x10hosting.com\/foodie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/bhiggs.x10hosting.com\/foodie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bhiggs.x10hosting.com\/foodie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bhiggs.x10hosting.com\/foodie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=11852"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/bhiggs.x10hosting.com\/foodie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11852\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":11854,"href":"https:\/\/bhiggs.x10hosting.com\/foodie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11852\/revisions\/11854"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bhiggs.x10hosting.com\/foodie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/11849"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/bhiggs.x10hosting.com\/foodie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=11852"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bhiggs.x10hosting.com\/foodie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=11852"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bhiggs.x10hosting.com\/foodie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=11852"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
