Squash and Coconut Milk Stew
Vanessa H.
"This is a Filipino dish, (Ginostoan Sitawan Kalsbass) that is made with acorn squash, green beans, tofu, shrimp, ginger, garlic, and onion. My MIL makes it on the soupy side because you serve it over rice, but I like to mash the squash because I don't like rice."

This was okay. If I were to make it again, I would probably add more coconut milk (or some whipping cream?) to make it creamier. It was pretty thick. Also, I added some curry powder and chili pa...

Yum! I suggest DITCHING the SUGAR and instead slicing an apple and adding at the same time as the squash--was perfectly sweet that way, I found. Also, instead of tofu and shrimp, I modified by...

The whole family enjoyed this, including the 3 year old and the baby. We did tweak it a bit based on what was in the pantry and for our dairy-free house. Used butternut squash for acorn, olive...

I've made this several times now, it's so comforting and delicious. I've used light coconut milk as well as half regular coconut milk mixed with half skim milk, and both turned out well (though ...
