Calabacitas Cheese Soup

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.

Steps

Saute onion and garlic in 1 tablespoon olive oil.
Add oregano , chicken broth and tomatoes.
Cover and bring to a boil.
Stir in squash , corn and green chilies.
Return to boil and simmer till squash is tender.
Stir in velveeta , salt , pepper and cilantro.
