Instructions: 4 SERVINGS DAIRY-FREE

This easy stew is also good served with a grain, such as rice or barley, in addition to the pita bread. In summer, try replacing parsley with a tablespoon of chopped fresh mint or dill. Finish each serving with a sprinkling of crumbled feta cheese. A package of frozen okra can be substituted for fresh-add during the last 10 minutes of cooking.

MEAL PLAN: Serve with warmed whole-wheat pitas (wrap in foil and heat in a 400F oven for about 10 minutes) and some hummus and Greek olives from the deli.

In large saucepan, heat oil over medium-low heat. Add onion and garlic and cook until onion is softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in green beans, okra, tomatoes, reserved tomato juice, broth and cumin. Bring to a boil, breaking up tomatoes with wooden spoon. Reduce heat to low, partially cover and simmer, stirring occasionally, 15 minutes.

Increase heat to medium-low. Stir in zucchini, parsley, salt and pepper, cover and cook until zucchini is just tender, about 8 minutes. Serve hot.
