BUTTERNUT SQUASH QUESADILLA
Hearty butternut squash is often roasted as a seasonal side dish, but a whole one might yield too much for a single meal. This double-cheese quesadilla is a great way to use the leftovers.

SQUASH BLOSSOM QUESADILLAS
Steps:
- Heat a large saute pan with a little oil and saute the onion, garlic, and the roasted poblano pepper for 5 minutes, until the onions have become translucent. Then, add the squash blossoms and deglaze with chicken stock. Add the epazote, and cook for another 5 minutes until squash blossoms have wilted. Season with salt and pepper, and set aside to cool.
- To compose the quesadilla lay the 2 of the tortillas on a flat surface. Distribute the cheese equally on both tortillas. Then, spread 1/2 of the squash blossom filling over the cheese. Cover with the other tortilla, place on heated griddle on nonstick saute pan with a little oil, and cook for 3 minutes on each side. When nice and golden brown on each side and cheese has melted, remove and cut into quarters.
SQUASH AND CHORIZO QUESADILLAS
These quesadillas are perfect for fall. They are stuffed with butternut squash which are at their peak this time of year. You will have some leftover beans. Add them to any salad for extra protein, make some homemade nachos and incorporate the beans into the topping, or turn them into a black bean burger patty. The options are endless for leftover beans!

Steps:
- Cook the chorizo in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat, breaking it up with a wooden spoon, until browned, about 4 minutes. Remove to a large bowl, reserving the pan drippings.
- Reduce the heat under the skillet to medium and add the squash, 1/3 cup water and 1/2 teaspoon salt; gently toss. Cover and cook until the squash is fork-tender, about 4 minutes. Uncover and cook until the liquid evaporates, 1 to 2 more minutes. Add the beans, chile powder and a pinch of salt and cook, tossing, until warmed through, 2 to 3 minutes. Add to the bowl with the chorizo.
- Meanwhile, whisk the lime juice and 1 tablespoon olive oil in a small bowl. Put the kale in a large bowl and pour the lime dressing on top. Massage the dressing into the kale; season with salt.
- Divide the squash mixture among the tortillas, leaving one half of each tortilla uncovered. Top with the cheese. Fold over the other half of each tortilla. Return the skillet to medium heat and add 1 tablespoon olive oil. Add 2 of the quesadillas and cook, flipping halfway, until golden, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil and repeat with the remaining quesadillas.
- Cut the quesadillas in half. Divide among plates and serve with the kale salad, pico de gallo and sour cream.

Steps:
- Heat 1 tablespoon of the butter and the olive oil in a large skillet over high heat. Add the squash and sprinkle with the salt, chile powder and pepper. Cook for several minutes, turning gently with a spatula, until the squash is deep golden brown and tender (but not falling apart). Remove to a plate and set aside.
- In the same skillet, melt the remaining 1 tablespoon butter over medium-high heat and add in the kale. Toss it around with tongs and cook it for 3 to 4 minutes. Add in the cooked squash and gently toss together.
- In a separate skillet, melt additional butter and lightly brown both sides of the tortillas.
- Build the quesadillas one by one starting with a tortilla, adding a layer of the cheeses and a layer of the squash/kale mixture and ending with a second tortilla. You'll have four quesadillas when you're done.
- Brown each quesadilla on both sides, adding more butter to the pan to make sure the tortillas are nice and golden and yummy. When the cheese is melted, remove each quesadilla from the skillet and cut it into four wedges.
SQUASH QUESADILLA
I, again, have dramatically altered what this recipe was intended for. The squash makes a tender and flavorful quesadilla. The recipe is not difficult, but be careful when preparing the actual quesadilla. Enjoy!

Steps:
- Heat a large pan with oil and saute the garlic and onion until they become clear Add the squash to the pan (already sliced thin) and deglaze the pan with the chicken broth.
- Allow this to cook all together for ten minutes.
- Season with salt and pepper, and set it aside to cool.
- Distribute the squash mixture and cheese between one (folded in half) or two flour tortillas. I cook these in a regular saute pan, for about 3-5 minutes on each side-- spray or oil your cooking surface so it will not stick. The sides will start to pinch together, and will become golden brown.
- Serve with salsa!

Steps:
- For the tortillas: combine the masa harina and salt in a bowl and stir in 1 1/4 cups water and oil. Knead in additional water to thoroughly soak the masa harina but not make it sticky. Cover and refrigerate at least 2 hours.
- For the filling: heat the oil in a skillet over medium heat and sauté the chilies and onion until the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in the squash blossoms and sauté for 1 minute. Add 1 cup water and heat to boiling. Cook, stirring, until the mixture is thick. Season with salt. Let cool.
- To shape the quesadillas, knead the dough in a bowl with enough water to reach a pliable, but not wet or sticky, dough. Remove the dough in 2 tablespoonful amounts and press between 2 sheets of waxed paper to form 4-inch rounds. Spoon a dollop of the filling onto the center of each round and top with a pinch of cheese. Fold the tortilla over the filling and press the edges together to seal.
- Heat 1/4 inch of the oil over medium heat in a skillet and fry the quesadillas, several at a time, for 30 seconds a side, turning several times, until golden brown, adding more oil as necessary. Drain on paper towels and keep warm. Serve immediately. This makes about 24 appetizer-size quesadillas.
