For those who've never heard of it before, calabacitas is a classic Southwestern blend of stewed vegetables including zucchini, tomatoes and corn. This colorful mix is simply flavored with onion and garlic, with a little minced jalapeno to round out the harmony. Serve it topped with crumbled cheese; you can make the whole dish in less than an hour.
