Clean Out the Fridge Saute with Hummus Sauce

Lately I haven't had time for real thorough meals. I am either grabbing something on the go, picking up to-go from the hot bar at the local health food store or whipping up easy dishes like this one.
- 1/3 lb ground meat (I used turkey) for vegetarian, could sub 1-2 cups cooked brown rice, millet, sorghum or quinoa
- 2-3 tsp coconut oil, butter, ghee or olive oil (use oil for vegetarian)
- 1/2 onion, thinly sliced
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 yellow squash, sliced
- 1 cup cooked green beans
- 2/3 cup cooked black beans (white beans or chickpeas would work too)
- salt and pepper to taste
- 1/4 cup prepared hummus (or homemade) - I used original but use your favorite flavor
- 1-2 Tbsp lemon juice + water to thin
In a large skillet, heat oil/butter over medium heat. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, stir or whisk together hummus, lemon juice and a few tablespoons of water until makes a sauce with a drizzle consistency. Set aside.
Add meat and onions to the pan and saute until meat is no longer pink, about 5-6 minutes and stirring occasionally.
Add garlic and squash and saute for 2 or 3 minutes.
Toss in cooked green beans and black beans and cook until heated through. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer to serving dishes and drizzle with prepared hummus sauce and enjoy!
