SOUTHWESTERN CORN AND HOMINY SAUTE (WW CORE)
I am one of those people who likes hominy, particularly in Southwestern soups and stews. Came across this side dish in a new Weight Watchers cookbook and decided that it would soon be making an appearance on my dinner table.

Steps:
- Remove the frozen corn from the freezer to begin defrosting.
- To prepare the Poblano chiles, place them directly over gas flame on your stove. Allow the skin to char and blister before turning using long tongs (or well padded fingers). Once all sides are charred, about five minutes, toss the peppers in a resealable bag and close. Set aside about ten minutes to allow the heat to steam the chiles. Once cooled, peel and seed the peppers, and give them rough chop.
- Heat the vegetable oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the onions and cook for two or three minutes until the onions are tender. Stir in the garlic, cumin and epazote/oregano and continue to cook another 30 seconds.
- Add in the corn and hominy, stirring occasionally, and cook for two minutes. Stir in the Poblanos and salt to taste. Cook an additional two or three minutes until the everything is heated through.
- Remove from heat and mix in the cilantro and lime juice.
- Serve with lime wedges.

Steps:
- In large saucepan, soup pot or Dutch oven, heat oil over medium heat. Add onion and cook, stirring often, until softened and slightly colored, about 8 minutes.
- Stirring continuously, add in garlic, flour, cumin, chili powder and coriander and cook an additional minute.
- Stir in broth, tomatoes, squash, potato, corn, and salt. Increase heat to high and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover partially and simmer 15 minutes.
- Stir in tomato paste, basil, cinnamon and pepper; cover partially and simmer gently until flavors have blended, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat.
- About 35 minutes before you plan to eat, make soft polenta. Start by bringing 3 1/2 cups of water to boil, adding salt. Mix remaining cup of water to cornmeal to create a slurry. Whisking vigorously, stir the slurry into the water. Using your whisk, keep mixing and stirring until polenta is cooked, about 30 minutes. When it is almost done, rewarm stew, if needed, over low heat.
- Spoon portions of polenta into large, shallow soup bowls, making wide depression in center. Spoon some stew into each depression, garnish with chopped bell pepper and serve right away.
- * A note for WW Core followers: Though flour is not Core, the amount used here is less than a 1/2 point per serving.

SOUTHWESTERN VEGETABLE STEW
Not sure how southwestern authentic this recipe really is, since its one of my mothers and she was raised in WI and lived her adult life in MN. :) But it is tasty. I have added stew meat on several occasions and browned ground beef a time or two and that is delicious also. I have made it without the olives and mushrooms and it was just as tasty. I have even added some drained mexican corn to it for some more color. So as you can see, you can change it up quite a bit! Have fun and hope you enjoy!

GREEK POTATO, ZUCCHINI, AND BEAN STEW
As the weather turns chilly, my tastes immediately turn to comforting stews and thick soups. Though I am not a vegetarian, I enjoy having meatless meals a couple of times a week. Saw this one on cooking Light and wanted to post it for future reference. For those on the WW Core program, the stew is Core plus points for the feta garnish.
