Perfect for a cold evening

I love making vegetable stew. I tend to start with the Vegi Soup Mix from Bob's Red Mill, and while that's simmering, I sear and season the vegetables in a separate pan before combining it for the last 15 minutes or so.

Soup Mix:
Lentils
Split peas
Barley
Vermicelli

Vegetables:
Mushrooms
Onion
Garlic
Carrots
Green Beans
Potatoes

Seasonings:
Salt
Pepper
Thyme
Soy Sauce
(Anchovie-free) Worcestershire Sauce

A bit of bread on the side with Country Crock spread, and I've got a hearty, protein-packed, vegan meal with enough umami flavors to compete with the beef stew that I remember from childhood.

Where’d you the the anchovies free version?

Kroger. It's their store-brand Worcestershire sauce. I was wary about "natural flavors" on the ingredients list, but there are plenty of search results confirming that it's vegan, including a blogger that reached out directly to the company to have them confirm it.

Not gonna lie

It looks pretty disgusting

Pretty common for food pics on lemmy IME. We're spoiled by professional photo studio shots of food for advertisements.

Average kitchen lighting, taken with a spare potato, really just can't compete for the visual pizzaz.
