Curried Squash and Lima Beans

Approx. 390 Calories per serving. Recipe makes 2 servings.



Since I've been eating a lot of light, fresh, fruity flavored main courses lately, I decided to change things up and make a hearty, stick to your ribs, savory dish tonight.



Ingredients

  • 1 cup lima beans (I used frozen)
  • 1 small butternut squash (approx. 2 1/2 cups)
  • 3 cloves garlic
  • 1/2 cup yellow onion
  • 1/3 cup green onion
  • 1 1/2 cups mushrooms
  • 2 tsp olive oil
  • 4 tsp curry powder
  • 1/4 cup coconut milk

Directions
  1. Peel and dice butternut squash. Microwave on high for 4 minutes while chopping all other vegetables.
  2. Dice yellow onion and cut green onion into thin slices.
  3. Chop mushrooms.
  4. Grate garlic and add to skillet with oil, diced onions, and curry powder.
  5. Cook until onions get soft.
  6. Add mushrooms, squash, lima beans (I added them frozen), and coconut milk.
  7. Cook until squash and mushrooms are tender, and beans are warm.
  8. Add green onion slices.
  9. Mix well and then serve.
