Steps:
- ROAST THE PEPPERS. Slice the poblano peppers in half lengthwise and scoop out the insides. Remove the stems. Set them onto a baking sheet and bake them at 350 degrees 20-30 minutes, or until the skins char and bubble. You can also broil them about 12-15 minutes to the same effect.
- Remove from heat and place them into a paper bag or baggie for a few minutes. The heat will steam them and loosen the skins.
- Peel away the skins and roughly chop the peppers. Set them aside for now.
- Cook the Onion, Jalapeno and Garlic. Heat the olive oil in a large pan or skillet and add the onions and jalapeno pepper. Cook for 5 minutes to soften.
- Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute, until the garlic becomes fragrant.
- Cook the Zucchini and Squash. Add the zucchini, squash, corn, Mexican oregano, ancho powder, chili flakes, cumin and salt to taste. Sauté until just tender, 3-4 minutes, to your preference.
- Stir. Stir in the chopped peppers and chopped cilantro. Heat through.
- Garnish. Garnish with fresh cilantro, crumbly white cheese and red pepper flakes
- FOR CREAMY-CHEESY VERSION
- Stir in the Mexican crema and cotija cheese until it melts through along with the chopped peppers and cilantro over low heat.

Steps:
- For the chili: Heat the oil in a 12-inch cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add the squash and a pinch of salt and black pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until the squash is tender and browned in spots, about 8 minutes. Remove the squash from the pan and set aside.
- Reduce the heat to medium. Add the garlic and onion and cook, stirring often, until the onion is soft, about 8 minutes. Add the chili powder (use less if you like milder chili) and cumin and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the vegetable stock, tomatoes, beans, sugar and cooked squash and bring to a simmer. Cook until all of the vegetables are tender and the sauce has thickened, about 30 minutes. (If the liquid reduces to less than three-quarters of the way up the sides of the squash, stir in a little water.) Stir in the baby spinach by the handful until all is incorporated and wilted.
- For the cornbread topping: Meanwhile, position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 400 degrees F. Whisk the cornmeal, flour, baking soda, sugar and 1 teaspoon salt together in a medium bowl. Whisk the milk, sour cream and egg together in another bowl. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, whisking until well combined. Stir in the melted butter and Cheddar. Drop spoonfuls of the batter on top of the chili, leaving space in between. (The batter will not completely cover the chili.)
- Bake until the cornbread is golden brown and springs back when touched and the chili is hot and bubbly, about 18 minutes. Serve with more sour cream and pickled jalapenos.
CORN AND SQUASH PUDDING
This tasty side dish gets a twist with the added bonus of squash. Not only does the squash add a vibrant color and tons of vitamins to the dish, it provides a creamy texture that plays well off the crisp corn kernels.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Mist an 8-inch square baking dish with nonstick cooking spray. Heat the butter in a medium nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic and onions and cook until softened, 4 minutes, and then add the squash and cook until dry. Stir in the corn and set aside to cool slightly.
- Combine the milk, cornmeal, parsley, nutmeg, cayenne, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a large bowl until smooth. Stir in the skillet mixture.
- Whip the egg whites in a separate bowl to stiff peaks and fold into the corn mixture. Fold in the cornflakes, pour into the prepared baking dish and smooth the top. Bake until lightly browned around the edges and a thin knife inserted into the center comes out clean, 45 to 50 minutes.
