Recipe By :Robin Robertson
Submitted by: Sue in NJ
2 tablespoons water -- or broth
16 ounces mushrooms -- quartered
2 tablespoons tomato paste
2 cups vegetable stock
1 large yellow onion -- chopped
1 large green bell pepper -- seeded and chopped
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 1/2 tablespoons sweet Hungarian paprika
8 ounces green beans -- washed & trimmed to 1"
salt and pepper -- to taste
1/2 cup soy sour cream
1. Brown the mushrooms in a tablespoon or water (or broth) for 3-4 minutes
and remove to another dish.
2. In a small bowl, combine the tomato paste with 1/4 cup of stock and set
aside.
3. Add the onions and bell peppers to the skillet, adding more water if
needed. Cook until all vegetables are softened, then whisk in the flour, mixing
well to prevent lumping. Cook for about a minute to remove the starchy taste.
4. Add everything except the mushrooms & sour cream to the slow cooker
and cook on LOW for 6 to 8 hours.
5. About a half hour before serving, add the mushrooms and season with salt
and pepper. Turn to HIGH for about 20 minutes or until thoroughly heated and the
sauce is thickened.
6. Just before serving, whisk in the sour cream, then serve at once.

NOTES : Sue's notes:
Original recipe called for 2 tablespoons of olive oil for heating the
mushrooms. To make this a bit more "hearty" for the big eaters
in the family, add about a half cup or so of TVP or soy crumbles or even some
white variety of beans.
