Instructions
  1. Place the stew mix in a pot.
  2. Add 1.5 times as much filtered water as stew mix (ie: 1 part stew mix to 1.5 parts filtered water) and let sit for five minutes. This amount of water will make a thick stew. If you like a soupier stew, make the ratio 1 part mix to 2 parts filtered water. I prefer the 2x water. If you're not sure, start with the 1.5x water and increase as desired.
  3. Bring the stew to a boil. Boil for one minute, then turn the heat off.
  4. Add 1tsp to 1Tbs coconut oil per serving for added healthy fat, since turkey is naturally low in fat. Fat = warm sleep and long-term energy!
  5. Optional: Add a handful of dried kale per serving.
  6. Let the pot sit for ten minutes with the lid on tightly. If possible, surround the pot with a pot cozy.
  7. Reheat the stew briefly if it has become too cold for your taste.
  8. You can also add 1 Tbs Collagen Hydrolysate per serving right before eating, to up your collagen intake (great for joint recovery!). Remember, it won't gel like gelatin will.
