Here's the pot o Mexican Stew simmering
a closer look at all the zucchini and beans...
Here's my recipe..I was unsure about the thickness of the stew, so I kept doing a double take and looking at the teeny picture in the printout and making some notes for the next time around.

Ingredients
1/2 pound 85% lean ground beef or turkey
1 medium onion, chopped
2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
2 tablespoons taco seasoning (gluten-free)
2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
1 large zucchini or summer squash, cut into small cubes
1 (15-ounce) can no-salt-added black beans
1 (14.5-ounce) can diced tomatoes
1 cup frozen corn kernels
1 cup medium salsa
Just a note...I swapped some ingredients to make it a bit healthier and to cut down on the sodium with all the canned items. I used low sodium broth, beans, and diced tomatoes. I also used 1/2 lb of ground white turkey from Whole Foods. I also omitted the taco seasoning. Instead I used 2 tsp of chili powder, 1 tsp of cumin and a 1/4 tsp of red pepper flakes.
Method
Brown meat in a large pot over medium high heat. Drain, remove and set aside. In the same pot, saute onion and garlic until onion is translucent. Add meat back to pot and sprinkle mixture with taco seasoning to blend. Add remaining ingredients and simmer, covered, stirring occasionally, 15 to 20 minutes.
