Moroccan Vegetable Tagine – Debbie Does Dinner Healthy

The original recipe from Debbie had chicken and eggplant.  Debbie commented that it did not need the chicken.  My husband thought it needed sausage.   Individual tastes play a big part in our cooking.  I had some leftover and if I have sausage, I am going to cook it up and add it to the tagine. 

Debby is an inspiration to me.  One day, all of a sudden, the name of her blog changed and her recipes did, as well.  The new healthy blog presents us with good tasting food on a daily basis with the charm that Debbie adds to it.

Moroccan Vegetable Tagine   adapted from Debbie Does Dinner Healthy 

Ingredients:

1 tbsp. olive oil
2 large onions, chopped
4 large carrots, chopped in chunks
2 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and chopped into bite sized chunks
1/2 cup craisins
1/2 cup chopped dried apricots                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                      2 pieces dried mango
2 cups vegetable broth
2 tbsp. lemon juice
2 1/2 tbsp. flour
2 tsp. garlic powder
1 1/2 tsp. ground cumin
1 tsp. ground ginger
1 tsp. cinnamon
1 tsp. salt
3/4 tsp. pepper

Method:

 Layer the onion, carrots, sweet potatoes, craisins, mango and apricots in crockpot. 

Whisk together the remaining ingredients, pour the broth into the crock pot.  (I added the broth earlier because the onions were sizzling, in the crockpot.  Right after the carrots, I poured in half the vegetable broth and added the remainder, after the other vegetables were added.)

Cook on low for 5 hours .

  1. Thanks for sharing with Two for Tuesday. I love the idea to cook a tagine in the crock pot.

    I’ve gotta ask, what is a craisin?

  2. I love the combination of flavors in Moroccan cooking – thanks for sharing this with Simple Lives Thursday.

  3. What a yummy combo of veggies – it would be a great fall meal – I think we would use meat of some sort. Thanks for linking to Two for Tues!

  4. Love the sound of craisins in it. Great combination of flavours..

  5. I do love the sound of this dish! Great flavors =) Thanks for sharing it w/ t4t this week =)

  6. This does look delicious and healthy. I will be sure to check out Debbie’s blog. I love anything that includes sweet potatoes, but I have probably mentioned before that Matthew does not like them. So alas, I don’t get to eat/cook with them very often. :(

  7. This a delicious looking combination of veggies! Perfect for what is in season right now! thanx!

  8. Yum. This looks like it’d make a great Saturday cholent as well (first slow-cooked Tajine I’ve seen).
