"Eating Vegetarian doesn't have to be bland and boring. This is a hearty and flavourful stew inspired by a recipe by Dreena Burton in her book Eat, Drink & Be Vegan. This recipe also fits within the guidelines put out by Dr. Hans Diehl and the CHIP program (Coronary Health Improvement Project) out of Loma Linda University. Serve with hearty grain buns and humus."

This is a nice spicy are warming stew, that is very filling. The smoked paprika gives it a great smoky flavor. I halved the salt and red pepper, and added more lime.
