1 onion
1 poblano pepper
2-4 cloves garlic
2-3 yellow squash/zucchini
1 can corn (drained)
1 cup chicken broth (can use veggie broth too; you can use bullion for this if you want)
1 cup milk
1 Tbsp corn starch
some cumin, chili powder, salt, pepper
Chop up and sweat the onion, pepper, and garlic. Chunk up the squash into bite-sized pieces (quarter-inch disks cut in half works). Add to the sweat along with the broth and the spices. Steam for 5-10 minutes, just enough to get it a little tender. While that's going, make a slurry- take a little jar and put in the milk and the corn starch and shake it up. Pour this into the pan and add the corn. Bring it up to a quick boil, then back it off to a simmer. Adjust the seasoning if needed. Simmer another 2-3 minutes, serve with a handful of grated cheese.
