Here is another seasonal d’lishes dish from Dani Spies, Clean Simple, D’lishes Living. Enjoy!

Ingredients:

1 large onion, chopped

4 cloves of garlic, chopped

2 bell peppers (1 red, 1 green), chopped

½-1 jalapeno, diced

4 cups of butternut squash cut into 1-inch chunks

1 bunch of cilantro, chopped

1 tbsp of curry powder

2 tbsp of chili powder

1 tbsp of cumin

1 15 oz can of diced tomatoes

4 cups of veggie broth

1 bunch of stemmed and chopped kale

2 tsp of olive oil

Salt and pepper to taste

Makes about 10 cups.


Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.  Once heated, stir in onions, jalapeno and garlic along with a pinch of salt.  Allow to cook about 2 minutes or so.

Stir in bell peppers and cook another two minutes.  Add squash, curry, chili powder, and cumin and give everything a good stir.

Add beans, tomatoes, and broth.  Turn heat to high and bring everything to a boil.  Once boiling, reduce to a simmer and cook until butternut squash is tender, about 10-15 minutes.

Add kale to the pot and cover for about 5 minutes.  Give everything one last stir…taste it…does it need anything else??  If not finish it with chopped cilantro and enjoy!!
