FIESTA ZUCCHINI

Squash with a bit of a Tex-Mex twist. I served this as something different to side with tacos and just used what I had on hand: a zucchini and a yellow summer squash, hot and spicy chipotle salsa, and a colby-monterey jack blend. This was adapted from a reader-submitted (Desiree Zamorano) recipe in Bon Appetit.

FIESTA ZUCCHINI

can be made into a casserole or individual dishes, ricotta has no relevance to the fiesta part...it was simply in my kitchen when this happened so it became part of the recipe. This recipe has no seasoning because I didn't feel it was necessary, however cilantro or salt would probably be a good idea if you like seasonings.

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Spray a 9 by 13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
  • 2. In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Add the turkey and cook until browned, 5 to 7 minutes. Stir in the onions and zucchini and cook until tender, about 5 minutes. Stir in the taco seasoning, 2/3 cup water, and the corn. Simmer until thickened, about 2 minutes, then stir in the black beans.

Cover with 3/4 cup of the salsa and 1 cup of the shredded cheese. Top with 4 more tortillas and the remaining 3/4 cup salsa. Scatter the remaining 1/2 cup shredded cheese over the top.
  • 4. Bake the casserole until the cheese is melted and bubbling, about 25 minutes. Slice and serve, topped with scallions and sour cream.
