| Directions: | Heat 1/2 c of water and the soy sauce in a large pot. Add the onion, bell pepper and garlic. Cook over medium heat until the onion is soft and most of the water has evaporated, about 5 minutes. Peel the squash, then cut it in half. Scoop out the seeds and discard. Cut the squash into 1/2-inch cubes and add it to the cooked onions along with the crushed tomatoes, 1 c of water, the oregano, chili powder, cumin and pepper. Cover and simmer until the squash is just tender when pierced with a fork, about 20 minutes. Add the kidney beans and corn with their liquid and cook 5 minutes longer. |
