I'm sorry.   Dietary restrictions can be tough to work around can't they.  Hope you can find something that works for him.

Leslie, a few suggestions.One lb rhubarb is about 6 cups or 15 stalks, so 4 stalks would equal about 1/4 lb or 1 1/2 cups.If your husband can't have most dark greens, just omit the parsley.Or, if you want a similar stew but with other vegetables, make an eggplant lamb khoresh (recipes at this and other sites).

Gammy..He cannot have any dark green veggies or herbs,esp Kale...a no-no. . ..because of a medication he is on.. Thanks tho.

Not familiar with the dish, but is very intriguing! There is a cup of parsley called for, so it is definitely more than a green garnish. I think the flavor would definitely change, but what about subbing in baby spinach or baby kale, either would be a fairly mild addition to keep the consistency more like a stew.
