Rockin' Moroccan Stew

This was originally made by T in one of our first meal swaps and I have been craving to make it ever since.  My family is harder to please when it comes to vegetarian meals, so I packaged this into lunch size ziplocs so I can enjoy it myself on those days when I don't have anything else prepared for lunch.  I ate two bowls today and can't wait to eat some more tomorrow!  This is yet another recipe from Looneyspoons Collection.

2 tsp olive oil
1 cup chopped onions
1/2 cup each diced celery and chopped green bell pepper
1 clove garlic, minced
3 cups vegetable stock
3 cups peeled, cubed sweet potatoes
1 can (19 oz) diced tomatoes, drained
1 can (19 oz) chickpeas, drained and rinsed
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 tsp grated ginger
1 tsp each ground cumin, curry powder, ground coriander, and chili powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
1/4 cup raisins
2 tsp each peanut butter and chopped, fresh cilantro

Heat olive oil in large saucepan or pot over med-high heat. Add onions, celery, green pepper, and garlic. Cook and stir until vegetables begin to soften, about 3 minutes.
Add all remaining ingredients, except raisins, peanut butter and cilantro. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer, covered, about 20 minutes.
Stir in raisins, peanut butter and cilantro. Mix well. Simmer for 5 more minutes.
