5 star average rating from testers!

Ingredients:

• 1 butternut squash (small)
• 1 teaspoon oil
• 1 onion (small, chopped)
• 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/4 cup red wine vinegar
• 1/4 cup water
• 2 cans black beans (16 ounces each, rinsed and drained)
• 1/2 teaspoon oregano

Directions

1. Heat the squash in the microwave on high heat for 1-2 minutes. This will soften the skin.
2. Carefully peel the squash with a vegetable peeler or small knife.
3. Cut the squash into 1/2 inch cubes.
4. Peel and chop the onion.
5. In a large pan, heat the oil. Add the onion, garlic powder, and squash.
6. Cook for 5 minutes on medium heat.
7. Add vinegar and water. Cook on low heat until the squash is tender, about 10-20 minutes covered.
8. Add the beans and oregano. Cook until the beans are heated through, uncovered.
