Halibut and Cannelini Bean Stew
This sumptuous stew is a lot more than a warming comfort food for a cool Fall night.

In fact, a study published in Neurology found that people with the lowest amount of potassium in their diet were 1.5 times more likely to have a stroke than those getting the most.1
