Introduction
Three Sisters Soup is a Native American tradition. Corn, beans, and squash are planted together on the same mound. The three thrive together because corn provides a natural pole for the beans to climb, the beans put nitrogen in the soil, and the squash leaves shade the ground to prevent the growth of weeds.Three Sisters Soup is a Native American tradition.

Tips
I make this every year for our Fall gatherings. The ingredients change with what I have available. Changing around the types of corn, beans, and squash. This year I am using chili beans and black beans and pumpkin for the squash. You may use regular corn or hominy. Using different spices to taste.
Directions
Using a slow cooker, add beans, corn, and enough water or vegetable stock to cover and bring to a simmer. To prevent it from getting too soft, hold back the pumpkin if using pre-cooked.
Add mixture to slow cooker and cook on high for 2-4 hours. Adjust cooking times as necessary so that mixture is bubbly and vegetables are fully cooked.
Approximately 30 minutes before serving, add chopped jalapenos.
Serving Size: Makes About 10 1-Cup Servings
