In large pot combine mushrooms, onion, squash, bell peppers, chili powder and 1/4 cup water. Bring to a simmer over moderate heat, and simmer until veggies are slightly softened, about 5 minutes. Add the kidney beans with their liquid, and the Marinara sauce. Bring to a simmer and cook 8 minutes to blend flavors, stirring occasionally.
