In a saucepan, saute the onion, garlic, carrots, and squash in the oil until the vegetables are just tender. In a large stockpot, combine the sauteed vegetables with all the remaining ingredients except the cheese and bring to a boil. Lower the heat, cover, and simmer for about 1 hour.
Sprinkle the cheese on top of each serving just before serving.
Note: If you like your stew with some spice to it, you can add some hot sauce with the ingredients as they simmer.

NOTES : from Curtis Cooks with Heart and Soul by Curtis Aikens, Hearst Books, 1995. This stew is a great anchor to any meal because it's so hearty and filling. You can serve it with just a salad and bread. Serves 4 to 6.
