Squash Stew with Feta Cheese

Monday, April 2nd, 2007

This recipe is taken from Vegetarian Times - April 2007 issue. The recipes originally called for farmer’s cheese, but feta seems to work quite well. The key is the fresh lime juice, cheese and squash. Definitely nothing at all like old fashioned baked acorn squash with butter.

Ingredients
1 Tbsp hemp oil
1 small butternet squash, peeled and cut into 3/4 inch chunks
1 small red onion
1 shallot, minced
1 cup So Nice Original Plus
1 Tbsp oregano
1 red bell pepper, chopped into 1 inch pieces
1 cup frozen green peas
1/2 cup frozen or canned corn
1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
juice of 1 lime

Directions

  1. Heat oil in large skillet. Once hot, add squash, onions and shallot. Cook for 5 minutes or until the onions is softened.
  2. Add in Soy milk and oregano, bring to a boil then reduce to a simmer. Cover and cook for 10 minutes.
  3. Add bell pepper, peas and corn. Cook covered for 5 minutes.
  4. Stir in feta cheese and lime juice. Serve and enjoy.

Substitutions

  • Hemp oil with olive or canola oil.
  • red onion with any other kind of onion.
  • So Nice Original Plus Soy milk with any Soy milk or evaporated cow’s milk.
  • shallot with garlic.
  • lime juice with lemon juice.
  • feta with other cheese, but will really change the flavour.
