Writing Prompt: “bean stew”, entry posted by thepavsalford
My Sunday greetings to all creative minds that participate actively in the Freewriters community!
This is my entry to the Writing Prompt by @mariannewest for 22 February 2026, Freewriters Community Daily Writing Prompt Day 3022: bean stew.
(Two chefs having a little chat in the kitchen)
“Beef stew?”
“No, I didn’t say beef stew! I said bean stew! Where is your mind?”
“Sorry, chef. I thought you said beef stew.”
“With the current price of beef, it’s gonna be some time before we see a customer ordering it.”
“Yes, I know exactly you mean. Bean stew is much cheaper.”
“Of course it is, and if you have some bread with it, you’ll get all that protein that you get from beef! Didn’t you know that?”.
“I guess I did. You’re right. People like all those meat dishes and ignore humble but delicious beans. So, how are we going to make it?”
“The usual, you know. I like adding some celery, and chopped carrots and red peppers for extra flavor.”
“Shall I bring the big clay pot?”
“Yes, please. I think we’ll be very busy tomorrow. I wouldn’t be surprised if we run out of bean stew!”
