This receipe makes 8 - 10 servings especially if it is served over couscous! It adapted easily to a slow cooker: garlic onion and oil on the bottom (did not pre-cook these) then peppers carrots and sweet potato. Eggplant around the sides and the tomato and squash on the top--it cooked together beautifully and required only 1 can of broth instead of 3 when cooked this way. I added the garbanzo beans at the very end. Read More

This was a nice change from a regular veggie stew-but I don't really care for the raisins. They were like biting into a ball of sugar. I would also use a different type of bean. The garbanzo beans stayed too firm to blend with the rest of the stew. I would try navy beans or cannelloni. Read More

Really delicious and easy and it made enough to feed an army--but since I'm cooking for one it means eight days of lunch (including today). I love how only a quarter teaspoon of spice makes it so flavorful. My only complaint is that it's maybe a little sweet for my taste but that can be remedied with a little salt. Also a word to the wise--I'd recommend using normal-sized vegetables. I went all gung-ho on this and got gigantic carrots and by the same I finished doling the soup out into plastic containers to be frozen it was all carrots.:) Read More

This recipe was great! Actually tasted very authentic with the exception of not actually cooking in a tagine.. I tried to mimic one of my favorite tagines I had in Morocco so substituted the eggplant for two large red potatoes and upped the spices to 1/2 tsp. apiece and added saffron. Very good and definitely feeds an army. Read More

Really great recipe! Perfect for this cold winter night. I made it vegetarian by using vegetable stock instead of chicken stock. I also followed the others' advice: I used ginger cayenne and paprika in addition to the spices listed. I ended up using 1/2 tsp of each (except the cayenne) and I thought it was perfect. And it had just enough kick to it! Read More

This was good! I really love tagine but had never had a vegetarian version before so I just had to try this. My changes and thoughts: as far as I know traditional tagine spices are ginger paprika cinnamon cumin cayenne and saffron so the recipe was missing some - I added 1/2 tsp of each. I used a 28oz can of diced tomatoes (lazy)including the juice and added about 3 cups of shredded cabbage that I needed to get rid of (not traditional I know but it does such an amazing job soaking up the spices!). I ate this with Syrian bread which I used to scoop the veggies and soak up the broth and it was delicious. Thanks for the recipe! Read More

Very good. I too added with the other spices ginger paprika cayenne and then I also added curry. I added 1/2 to 1 tsp of each. I also upped the other spices to 1/2 to 1 tsp based on personal preference of each spice. I served it with a side of couscous. Very good. It does make enough for an army so I will be freezing the left overs. Read More

good recipe and yes makes a lot! I made the following changes: Added 2 chicken breasts cut up(cooked first w/ the onions and garlic); upped the spices to 1/2tsp each and added ginger and paprika (prob. needed more of all spices); no eggplant or green pepper; 2 zucchinis; can tomatoes; some leftover butternut squash with the sweet potatoes; served with quinoa.

This turned out really well. I threw in some sausage that I had to use up other than that I didn't change anything. It makes a lot but you can always freeze some. Great recipe! Read More
