Winter

White Bean Stew with Squash & Greens

from White Bean Stew with Arugula Salad & Cheese Toasts , the Week of January 22, 2017.
View the previous recipe for this meal.

A hearty vegetarian main dish stew, perfect for a blustery day as it bursts with winter’s harvest of squash & greens. Some of the flavor comes from using the end of a Parmesan rind. Higher end grocers often sell them in the cheese department. Leave out the parmesan to make it vegan or dairy free- it is delicious without it.

Ingredients

  • 1 lb butternut squash, or a bit larger
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 onion, finely minced
  • 4 cups broth
  • 2 cloves garlic, finely minced or chopped
  • 1 parmesan cheese, heel or 4 tablespoons grated
  • 1 can white beans, great northern, navy or cannellini
  • 1 bunch kale, small, washed and dried

Serving Size: 4 People



 

Preparation Instructions

Prepare the squash by peeling it. Cut in half and scrape out the seeds and membranes. Cut into 1 inch pieces. Place in a soup pot. Pour in the broth until just covered. Bring up to a boil over high heat.

Chop the onion and mince the garlic. Add to the squash with the Parmesan (rind or grated). Reduce to a relatively high simmer (medium to medium-high) and cook for 10-15 minutes until the squash is tender.

Next stir in the white beans and kale. Cook for 5-10 more minutes.

Keep warm over low heat.
