Three sisters stew
2 steps
Prep:20minCook:40min
In Native American lore, “three sisters” refers to corn, squash, and beans, which are traditionally planted together—the beans at the base of the corn stalks, which serve as “stakes” for the vines to climb up, and squash in between so its large leaves can shade the ground and keep the soil moist. Here, a simple vegan stew celebrates the trio to delicious effect.
