CALABACITAS (SOUTHWESTERN SQUASH SAUTE)



Calabacitas (Southwestern Squash Saute) image

There are as many recipes for calabacitas as there are cooks. Here's how DH and I like it. We especially enjoy this in August when zucchini and corn are fresh from the garden. It is a versatile dish - the measurements are estimated. Use whatever fresh vegetables you have on hand...red peppers, grated carrots, jalapenos, diced tomato... For example, if I'm making it for my Yankee parents I omit the poblano and cilantro, and add parsley, resulting in a mild but tasty saute of summer vegetables. Have fun experimenting and enjoy!

SHERRI'S MEXI ZUCCHINI SQUASH SAUTE



Sherri's Mexi Zucchini Squash Saute image

Squash with an exciting tex-mex flavor. This recipe is very versatile-use zucchini, yellow, or calabacita squash, RoTel tomatoes, Jack cheese or add mushrooms, kernel corn, and season to taste-esp the salt-a lot will depend on the bacon you use. I also like to add cumin, mexican oregano, and minced garlic or garlic powder. Use fresh tomatoes if you wish-cherry tomatoes are great! Also, this tastes great w/o the cheese, too. I found this recipe in a book my Grandmother gave me, compiled by Ladies Auxiliary of the Medina Lake Volunteer Fire Department, 1978. Enjoy!
