Red bean stew with walnuts and pomegranate

Truth: Of all the recipes I have tried thus far this has been my least favorite. I think (for me) there were too many contrasting things going on with the recipe. Muddy beans, bright parsley, intense pomegranate seeds and walnuts. We served it with cottage cheese (nice offset to the stew heat) and pumpernickel bread. I am happy to have the leftover pomegranate seeds! I cleaned them myself in a bowl of cold water to keep the mess to a minimum.

Vegetarian folks will probably welcome a dish like this as an addition to the normal repertoire. On a positive note: we will be making "cake and banana toss with spiced chocolate drizzle for dessert. Yum!
