Bean And Squash Stew Crock Pot Recipes

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion and garlic and cook until soft and golden brown, 4 to 5 minutes. Stir in the tomato paste and red pepper flakes and cook 1 minute. Stir in 1/2 cup water, scraping up any browned bits. Transfer the contents of the skillet to a 6-quart slow cooker.
• Add the chickpeas, squash, chard stems (not the leaves), the parmesan rind, if using, 2 teaspoons salt and 7 cups water to the slow cooker. Stir, then cover and cook on low, 8 hours.
• Just before serving, lift the lid and stir in the chard leaves; cover and continue cooking 10 more minutes. Season with salt and pepper, and stir to slightly break up the squash. Discard the Parmesan rind, if used. Ladle the stew into bowls; top with the grated parmesan, if desired, and serve with bread and/or lemon wedges.

Steps:

• Cut squash into 1/4-inch -thick slices. In a 3- or 4-qt. slow cooker, combine squash, tomatoes and green onions. Add salt, pepper and broth. Cook, covered, on low until tender, 2-1/2 - 3-1/2 hours. Remove squash with a slotted spoon., To serve, top with croutons, cheese and bacon.

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients except the cheese in the crock pot. Cook on low for 8 to 10 hours or on high for 5 to 6 hours.
• Transfer to large shallow serving bowl and sprinkle generously with grated cheese, if desired.

Steps:

• Thinly slice the onion; cut slices into 1-inch pieces. Place into the bottom of a 4- to 6-quart slow cooker with squash and potatoes. Add water to cover the vegetables to a depth of 1 inch. Add ginger, garlic, bouillon, five-spice powder, salt, nutmeg, cloves, and pepper. Stir.
• Cover and cook on High for 4 hours, or Low for 8 hours.
• Stir in rice and cook on High for 1 additional hour.

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large (12-inch) skillet over medium. Add the onion, season with salt, and cook, stirring, until the onion is limp and translucent, 6 to 8 minutes. Add the celery and bell pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, 5 to 8 minutes. Add the chopped garlic, miso paste, smoked paprika, sweet paprika, onion powder, garlic powder, cayenne and sage, if using. Grind in a generous amount of black pepper and add 3/4 teaspoon salt. Stir to combine until the miso has dissolved, then remove from the heat and scrape the mixture into a 6- to 8-quart slow cooker. Add the beans, bay leaves, thyme and 6 cups water. Cook on high until the beans are very tender and creamy, about 7 hours.
• If your beans are not bubbling at all by the time they are done cooking, turn the heat up to high and let them bubble for about 10 minutes, to make them easier to digest.
• Before serving, add the soy sauce, and season to taste with salt and cayenne. Using a fork or the back of a spoon, mash some of the beans against the side of the slow cooker to make the mixture slightly creamy. (It will continue to thicken as it sits.) Discard the bay leaves and thyme sprigs. Top the beans with hot cooked rice and scallions; serve with hot sauce.

Steps:

• Turn a slow cooker on High.
• Combine butternut squash, lentils, onion, carrots, olive oil, sage, sea salt, ginger, garlic powder, and cumin in the slow cooker. Pour in water and stock. Stir gently to evenly distribute spices and vegetables.
• Cook on High until vegetables are cooked through and lentils are soft, 2 1/2 to 3 hours. Serve warm.
