2 Tablespoons Olive Oil

1 ½ Cups Chopped Red Onions

1 Cup Chopped Red Bell Pepper

3 Cloves Minced Garlic

3 Serrano Peppers (Stemmed, Seeded & Minced)

1 Medium Diced Zucchini

2 Cups Corn

In a large pot heat the oil over medium high heat.  Add the onions, bell peppers, garlic and Serrano peppers.  Cook and stir until soft which will be about 3 minutes.   Next, add the zucchini, corn and mushrooms and cook until vegetables start to brown around the edges which should be about 6 minutes.  Add the spices and continue to stir.  Next, add the tomatoes, beans, tomato sauce and vegetable stock and stir well.  Bring to a boil.  Reduce the heat to medium low and simmer for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.  Remove from heat and stir in the cilantro.  Super easy, super fast and super yummy!  May be served over rice, with tortilla chips or corn bread.
