Easy Moroccan Chickpea Stew
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 cups cubed peeled butternut squash (1/2-inch cubes)
1 large onion, chopped
1 large sweet red pepper, chopped
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon pepper

In a Dutch oven, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add squash, onion and red pepper; cook and stir until onion is translucent and red pepper is crisp-tender, about 5 minutes. Stir in seasonings until blended.
Add chickpeas, tomatoes and water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer until squash is tender, about 8 minutes. If desired, top with cilantro.
