Got some delicata squash and corn on the cob in our veggie box today. They sounded like a good combination so I googled it and found this: New Mexican Calabacitas (Squash and Corn saute)
Served it with steamed rice and corn tortillas with butter (cause I had both of them needing to be used up in the fridge).
Here's my version of the recipe:
Ingredients (6 servings)
3 tablespoons olive oil
2 leeks, chopped
2 small delicata squash, chopped into small cubes
2 ears of corn, kernels cut off
1 green chile pepper, chopped (I don't know what kind of pepper it was. We get a variety in our veggie box)
1 cup tomatoes, diced
1 can black beans, drained and rinsed
4 cubes Trader Joe's frozen chopped cilantro
Garlic salt and freshly ground pepper, to taste
Mixed herbs, to taste (marjoram and lots of cumin)
Preparation
Heat oil in a large skillet and sauté the leeks and squash until softened (5-10 minutes). I added, garlic salt, pepper and about 1/4 c of water halfway through the cooking as the squash was starting to brown and stick to the pan. Add corn, green chile, and mixed herbs and sauté 5 minutes longer. Stir in the tomatoes, cilantro, and beans and heat through, about 3 minutes. Serve immediately.
