I was looking for tasty, healthy recipes I could make ahead and freeze for lunches to take to work. This recipe fits the criteria extactly. The combination of what we in Australia call prawns with tomato and fresh parsley is a rellay nice combination and the beans add just the right amount of texture to the dish. The stew was great when fresh made but froze well too and was very quick and simple to prepare. I used much less oil (a quick spray with an oil/water mix) to make it even healthier.

Wow! Yummy, satisfying, easy AND low-fat! What more could you ask for? I had lots of fresh plum tomatoes, so I used 2 cups of those diced instead of canned. Many thanx for the recipe. I'll make this again.
