CALABACITA CON PUERCO (PORK WITH SQUASH)
Calabacita is a classic Tex-Mex dish that is slightly different everywhere you find it. This is my grandmother's version, which I think is the best! Serve with hot corn tortillas.

Steps:
- Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Cook pork chops until no longer pink in the center, about 4 minutes per side. Cool until easily handled, about 5 minutes. Cut the pork into bite-sized cubes.
- Heat remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil in the saucepan. Add cubed pork, calabaza squash, corn, onion, tomatoes, and garlic and cook until onion is transparent, about 5 minutes. Stir in tomato sauce, cumin, salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Pour in chicken stock and simmer, covered, until flavors are combined, about 2 hours. Stir occasionally and check periodically to see if more chicken stock is needed.

MEXICAN STYLE SQUASH MEDLEY
This is an old family recipe. We cooked it without measuring ingredients so I had to stop and weigh and measure in order to post it! Not hot spicy, but a different and flavorful way to cook summer produce and it is even better the next day (if it lasts that long).

MEXICAN SUMMER SQUASH CASSEROLE
This is a hearty vegetable casserole with a Mexican flair and with the addition of leftover/cooked chicken, it can become a great dinner casserole. The heat can easily be varied by changing the amount of green chiles, adding jalapenos, or by adjusting the amount of spice in the salsa.
