Then add the squash and continue to sauté for about 10 minutes. Keep stirring so as to completely sauté all the squash, you may add a little more olive oil if your squash looks a little dry. Continue to sauté for 5 more minutes.
• 2. Next add the wine, oregano or epazote, cumin, garlic powder, salt and pepper and the diced tomatos. Stir well taste to see if it has enough salt. Cover lower the heat and cook for about 15 minutes more or until squash is cooked tender. Do not over cook. Serve as a side dish.
• 3. I have only used one serrano but you may add more if you like your calabasitas a little hotter.

Steps:

• Peel and slice all squash and put in pot put just enough water to slightly cover squash add rotel (I used mild rotel and only half a can because I have small children and didn't want it too spicy).
• add enough cilantro for your own liking sprinkle in salt and pepper to taste boil lightly until squash is tender add a couple of slices of cheese or enough to your liking heat until cheese is melted.
