ACORN SQUASH WONDER TACOS/CHALUPAS

This is one of those recipes where you'll cross your eyes in pleasure after tasting. Great for vegetarian meat substitute or hiding veggies from your kids. They do not taste like squash. If you don't have cotija cheese, you can substitute Parmesan. But cotija marries well with cumin. Serve with refried beans for extra yum.

Steps:

  • Slice squash in half length-wise. Scoop out seeds, then horizontally cut the fruit into 1/2 inch-thick slices.
  • Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper, then roast at 450 degrees F for about 20 minutes. When cooked and cooled, peel the squash and set aside.
  • Over medium heat, melt the butter with the olive oil. (For a vegan version, skip the butter and double the oil).
  • Then, saute the onions, red pepper, jalapeño, and garlic until garlic is fragrant and the onions have softened. Add the dry spices, then stir in cooked squash.
  • Season to taste, and pile the filling into warmed tortillas. Garnish with cilantro, fresh salsa, tomatoes and sour cream for the dairy-eaters.
