As prepared here, the squash is flavorful enough to stand on its own as a side dish with Latin flair, but we prefer to layer it in tortillas with cheese, pickled jalapeños, and any other taco toppings we can get our hands on.

]]> Heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a medium frying pan over medium heat. When it shimmers, add 1 cup small-dice onion and 1 teaspoon chipotle powder, ancho powder, or chili powder, season with salt, and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 3 minutes. Add 2 cups small-dice butternut squash and 1/2 cup vegetable broth. Stir to coat the squash and cook until knife tender, about 10 minutes. Make tacos by filling corn tortillas with 1/4 cup squash mixture and topping with crumbled queso fresco, pickled jalapeños, and other toppings of your choice.
