Cowgirl Hot Pot
"This is from The Complete Encyclopedia of Vegetables and Vegetarian Cooking by Roz Denny and Christine Ingram. The original title is cowboy hot pot, but I am making a few changes to lighten it up so I can't help but see it as a cowGIRL's healthy choice LOL.I made this with smoked cheddar instead of gouda, and ketchup instead of tomato paste as I was out. For a one-dish meal (and for true cowgirl style) make this in a large cast iron skillet (that's "eye-urn" for all you city slickers ;) )"

- Serves:

4-6
ingredients
- 1 onion, sliced
- 1 bell pepper, sliced
- 1 sweet potato, chopped (or sub 2 carrots)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil (original calls for 3 T sunflower oil)

- 1 (7 ounce) can corn (do NOT drain)
- 1 tablespoon tomato paste
- 1 teaspoon seasoning salt

- 1 tablespoon butter, melted (original calls for 2)
- salt and pepper, to taste
directions
- Preheat oven to 375.
- Fry the onion, pepper, and sweet potato gently in oil until softened but not browned (you could probably steam them as well and omit the oil altogether!).
- Add the green beans, baked beans, corn with liquid, tomato paste, and seasoned salt. Bring to a boil and simmer 5 minutes.
- Transfer the vegetable mixture to a shallow ovenproof dish and scatter the cubed cheese on top.

I made recipe as posted except I premade the recipe, and took it to the Notre Dame tailgating party yesterday, and I heated it up in my friend RV. Great tasting filling recipe here, very enjoyable on a cool cloudy damp day, will make again. Made for PRMR tag. -
Delicious! Made as directed for a wonderful vegetarian dinner. I thought this would also be wonderful with hot dogs and brown bread w/apple crisp for dessert -- next time we will try it that way, but wonderful just the way it was. Thanks for sharing!
RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
I live in Knoxville, TN with DH, my beautiful son, and the most spoiled cat on the planet! I grew up in Cincinnati and landed in TN by way of Bloomington, IN and Santa Fe, NM. Needless to say, it's been a long, strange trip!!
To explain the name: I was veg for 11 years, vegan for 1. In the last year or so I started eating poultry and fish again, but my brother-in-law's nickname for me (smelly vegetarian) has always stuck.
Also...thanks a million to my Zaar fairy godperson :)!!!
