I've also prepared this in my crock pot, add everything except the Velveeta and cilantro. Cook on low for 4-5 hours adding the Velveeta and cilantro during the last 30 minutes so it has a chance to melt. You can also substitute a can of Rotel tomatoes for the stewed tomatoes if you prefer it spicy.

I'm not sure why this soup is called calabacitas cheese soup. It doesn't taste anything like cheese.

I'm not a huge fan of squash, but this soup was actually really good. The cheese and vegetables balanced out the flavor of the squash.
