  1. This makes 1 medium-ish bowl as a meal or two small bowls as a side/starter. I cook by feeling so these are approximate amounts for the recipe but:

    Sauté 1/2 medium sized poblano, diced, a little more than 1/4 yellow onion, diced, and two mini sweet peppers, diced in maybe 1 tb of butter until translucent. Season with a little pinch of salt (I used chipotle salt). Add 2 fat cloves of garlic, minced and sauté until fragrant then add just enough water to cover the veggies, maybe 1/2-2/3 cup.

    Add 1/2 chickenless bouillon cube, a little pinch of mushroom seasoning/mushroom umami seasoning/msg, 1 bay leaf, and I added some dried hatch chiles I needed to use. Simmer until veggies are softened. Add frozen corn towards the end just to warm through. I used fire roasted corn.

    In a separate bowl add a couple heaped spoonfuls of 4% cottage cheese, maybe 1/4-1/3 cup, a small handful of any kind of shredded cheddar you want, maybe 3-4 tb, a splash of milk or nondairy milk, maybe 1/4 cup, and an optional pinch of sodium citrate which just makes it smooth and less likely to break. Stir and microwave in 30 second intervals, stirring each time until melted.

    Turn the stove off, take the pot of veggies and stock off the heat, remove bay leaf, and stir in the cheese mixture. Top with green onion, black pepper, and optional cheddar and sour cream if you want.
