Using three of the most popular foods in Central American and Mexican cuisine, this is a quick, delicious and very satisfying meal. We call it the Three Sisters Meal because these three ingredients are often referred to as the three sisters. They like hanging out together.
The Three Sisters Meal, Corn, Beans & Squash (Serves 2)
- ½ Kabocha, 1 Medium Butternut peeled, or 1 large Delicata Squash, cut into 2” cubes
- 15 ounce can Pinto beans, drained
- 2 cups frozen corn
- Salsa
- Avocado, cut in half and diced
Cook the squash the way you like it best. Bake it, boil it or steam it.
When squash is almost done, add beans and corn to a medium pan and heat stirring often, approximately 5 minutes.
Add diced squash to the mix and continue to heat another 5 minutes
Dish into bowls and top with salsa and avocado.
Note: We serve this with a side of steamed greens and cabbage and a vegetable you enjoy, beet, carrots, string beans, asparagus, zucchini, etc.
The vegetables you can add to the cabbage and greens and top with our Cesar Dressing from our website, made from nuts.
