Squash and Coconut Milk Stew image

This is a Filipino dish, (Ginostoan Sitawan Kalsbass) that is made with acorn squash, green beans, tofu, shrimp, ginger, garlic, and onion. My MIL makes it on the soupy side because you serve it over rice, but I like to mash the squash because I don't like rice.

I made this stew in my slow cooker and it turned out perfectly. I just threw all the ingredients in the pot and let it cook on low for 8 hours. When I came home from work, dinner was ready and waiting for me.
