MIXED BEAN AND WINTER SQUASH STEW WITH FRESH BASIL
I usually use a combination of white and red or borlotti beans for this stew. The fresh or frozen limas add a pale green, fresh bean to the mix. Soaking the beans is not absolutely necessary, but I find that they cook more evenly and have a more uniform, pillowy texture if I do.

Steps:
- Drain the beans through a strainer set over a bowl. Transfer to a large, heavy soup pot or Dutch oven. Measure the liquid in the bowl and add enough water to measure 2 quarts. Add to the beans and bring to a gentle boil over medium heat. Cover, reduce the heat to low and simmer 1 hour. Add salt to taste and the bouquet garni, and continue to simmer until tender but intact, about 30 minutes.
- Meanwhile, heat the olive oil over medium heat in a large, heavy frying pan and add the onion. Cook, stirring, until the onion is tender, about 5 minutes, and add the paprika. Stir together for about a minute, and add the garlic and a pinch of salt. Cook, stirring, for a minute or two, until the garlic and onions are very fragrant, and stir in the tomatoes. Cook, stirring often, until the tomatoes are cooked down and fragrant, about 5 to 10 minutes. Add a ladleful of broth from the beans and stir to deglaze the bottom of the pan.
- Stir the onion mixture into the beans. Add salt and pepper to taste. Add the winter squash and lima beans. Cover and simmer for about 30 minutes, until the squash and all the beans are tender. Taste and adjust salt, and add freshly ground pepper. Remove the bouquet garni. Just before serving stir in the fresh basil. Serve in wide soup bowls, passing Parmesan for sprinkling.

GREEK STEWED GREEN BEANS AND YELLOW SQUASH WITH TOMATOES
Green beans are one of many vegetables that both Greek and Turkish cooks stew with abundant olive oil in dishes known as ladera. This recipe is inspired by one of them, but it's a far cry from the authentic version, which requires three times as much oil and simmers for a longer time. Don't be put off by the faded color of the beans; they're comforting and delicious.

Steps:
- Heat 2 tablespoons of the olive oil in a wide, covered skillet or Dutch oven over medium heat, and add the onion. Cook, stirring, until tender and translucent, five to eight minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, for another minute until fragrant. Stir in the green beans, squash and remaining oil. Stir together for a few minutes, then add the tomatoes and 1/2 cup water. Bring to a simmer, then add salt and freshly ground pepper.
- Cover and simmer 30 minutes until the beans are tender and the mixture is stew-like. Add the herbs, and simmer for another five to 10 minutes. Add lemon juice if desired. Taste, and adjust seasonings with salt and pepper. Serve hot or at room temperature.

Steps:
- Heat oil over medium heat in a large pot. Cook onion and garlic in hot oil for 4 minutes or until tender. Stir in squash, undrained canned diced tomatoes, broth, water, cumin, oregano and black pepper.
- Simmer, covered, for 30 minutes or until squash is tender. Stir in undrained canned seasoned green beans and black beans. Cook for 5 more minutes or until heated through. Serve over hot cooked couscous. If desired, sprinkle with cilantro.
Tips:
- Choose the right squash: For this stew, butternut squash or kabocha squash are good choices. They have a sweet flavor that pairs well with the other ingredients.
- Roast the squash before adding it to the stew: Roasting the squash brings out its natural sweetness and gives it a slightly caramelized flavor.
- Use a variety of beans: Black beans are a classic choice for this stew, but you can also use kidney beans, pinto beans, or even lentils.
- Add some spice: A little bit of chili powder or cumin can give this stew a nice kick. You can also add a touch of cayenne pepper if you like it spicy.
- Serve with your favorite toppings: This stew is delicious on its own, but it's also great with a dollop of sour cream or guacamole. You can also serve it with a side of cornbread or tortillas.
Conclusion:
Squash and black bean stew is a hearty, healthy, and flavorful dish that's perfect for a weeknight meal. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy dinner, give this stew a try.
