THREE SISTERS BOWL WITH HOMINY, BEANS AND SQUASH
There are quite a few legends within various Indigenous communities involving the three sisters: corn, bean and squash. The ancient and advanced farming techniques from the Cherokee and so many other tribes throughout the East Coast yielded countless strains of these ingredients, in many sizes, colors and flavors. These diverse seeds are not only a direct connection to the past, but a symbol of resistance to the destruction of our cultures. This recipe showcases the simplicity of these flavors and can stand alone as a vegan meal or can accompany bison pot roast, roast turkey or salmon with crushed blackberries.

Steps:
- Place the hominy and tepary beans in separate medium bowls. Add enough water to each to cover the beans by 4 inches, and soak overnight at room temperature.
- About 3 hours before serving, drain the hominy and the beans and place them in separate 3- to 4-quart pots. Add enough cool water to cover the hominy and tepary beans by 4 inches. Set each over high heat, bring to a boil, then lower the heat and simmer gently, stirring occasionally and skimming any foam that rises to the surface, until tender, about 1 1/2 to 2 hours. Reserve 2/3 cup of the cooking liquid from each type of beans (for 1 1/3 cups liquid). Drain the hominy and the beans and set aside.
- Meanwhile, prepare the squash: Heat the oven to 425 degrees. On a parchment-lined rimmed baking sheet, toss the squash with 1 tablespoon oil and a pinch of coarse sea salt. Arrange the squash in an even layer and roast until golden and very tender, stirring halfway through, 35 to 45 minutes.
- In a large skillet, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons oil over medium-high. Add the onion, chile powder, sage and a generous pinch of smoked salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are tender, 5 to 8 minutes. Add the reserved 1 1/3 cups cooking liquid and bring to a simmer.
- Add the cooked hominy and beans to the skillet, then stir in the roasted squash and greens. Season to taste with coarse sea salt and serve.
THREE SISTERS SQUASH
The sisters in this recipe are the Native American staples beans, corn and squash, which together offer a delicious main course for vegan diners. It comes from Maria Marlowe, a Times reader in New York, who said that she used the dish to help convince her family that eating vegan didn't have to mean sacrificing flavor.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 400 degrees. Combine olive oil and 1/3 of the minced garlic in a small bowl; set aside.
- Remove stem from squash and cut each in half from top to bottom. Scoop out seeds and reserve for another use. Brush inside of each squash with the garlic oil. Place squash flesh side up on a baking sheet and roast for about 35 minutes.
- Meanwhile, prepare the filling: Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-low heat. Add onion and chile and sauté for about 2 minutes. Add the remaining garlic, the beans, the corn, the broccoli and the rice, if using. Cook for 3 to 5 minutes, until corn is bright yellow and broccoli is bright green. Stir in parsley, paprika, salt and pepper and continue to cook for about a minute. Adjust seasonings if needed.
- Remove squash from oven. Scoop corn and bean mixture into center of each squash. Serve right away.

THREE SISTERS SOUP
The Iroquois Indians cultivated and used the Three Sisters (corn, squash and beans) in their diet. This is a recipe passed down by our relatives. You may use regular corn instead of hominy, but hominy is more traditional.

THREE SISTERS' VEGGIE BOWL
From deliciousliving.com with minor changes. 'Southwestern Native Americans employ a gardening method that combines a stalk of corn, a bean plant, and a squash plant on individual mounds. The corn provides a pole for the beans, the beans fix nitrogen in the soil for the corn, and the squash shades the mound to prevent weed growth. They're called "the three sisters." Corn and beans combine to form a complete protein, and the three together are delicious!' I used butternut squash that I had cubed and frozen back in late fall.
