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

- 2 cups canned white or yellow hominy , drained
- 2 cups fresh green beans , trimmed and snapped
- 2 cups peeled and cubed butternut squash
- 1.5 cups diced peeled potatoes
- 5 cups water
- 1.5 tablespoons chicken bouillon granules
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons butter , melted
- 0.25 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper

Blueberry Nut Muffins
These blueberry muffins with nuts are a great part of a brunch or tea. They are not too sweet, which lends to the flavor of the fruit in this muffin. Sprinkle sugar on top of muffins before baking for a sweeter top.
Velveting Chicken Breast, Chinese Restaurant Style
Velveting chicken makes it as moist and tender as what's served at the best Chinese restaurants. This is not my technique — I got it online. Don't limit this chicken to just Chinese dishes. The velveted chicken can then be stir-fried with vegetables and sauce or stored for a few hours in the refrigerator before cooking.
