Ingredients
- small butternut squash
- 1 cup chopped onion
- 1 teaspoon vegetable oil
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 cup red wine vinegar
- 1/4 cup water
- 2 (16-ounce) cans black beans, rinsed and drained
- 1/2 teaspoon oregano
Instructions
-
Heat the squash in the microwave on high heat for 1-2 minutes. This will soften the skin.

Carefully peel skin off the squash with a vegetable peeler or small knife. Cut the squash in half lengthwise and remove seeds with a spoon. Cut meat of squash into 1/2-inch cubes.
-
Peel and chop the onion. In a large pan, heat the oil. Add the onion, stir until coated and almost clear.
-
Add squash. Cook for 5 minutes on medium heat. Add garlic powder, vinegar and water.
-
Cook on low heat until the squash is tender, about 20-25 minutes. Add the beans and oregano. Cook until the beans are heated through.
