This stew came together on a snow day, when leaving the house wasn’t happening and comfort was the goal. I used what I already had in my pantry: canned beans, tomatoes, coconut milk, plus a few fresh collard greens that needed to be used up. The result was a warm, nourishing one-pot meal that felt slow and intentional, even on a quiet, ordinary day at home.
