Bean & Butternut Tacos with Green Salsa

The Simple Art of EatingWell, September/October 2009

Your rating: None Average: 4.3 (40 votes)

Beans and roasted butternut squash make an outstanding vegetarian taco filling. For the best flavor, use fresh, good-quality chili powder and Mexican oregano. Look for both at Latin markets or in the bulk spice section at well-stocked natural-foods stores.

Too much work for too little result

These tacos were way too much work for too little taste. I had to doctor everything to improve the flavors. I liked my doctored version, but would not recommend the original to anyone. Sorry.

Learned to make green salsa with tomatillos

Pretty Good Autumn Vegetarian Entree

My husband loved these tacos, but the dried chiles spoiled the squash for me. Also, in holding out for browning, I overcooked the squash. Instead of assembling the tacos myself, I put all the fixings on the table for diners to make their own. We had to eat part of the beans and squash with a fork, as there weren't enough tortillas for all that food.

This was such a great dinner last night! Even my 8 year old daughter liked it - with the exception of the squash... haha! But I forgot to make the pinto beans the night before and the only canned beans I had were kidney beans and it was excellent!! The mix of flavors were an excellent combination!! I will definitely make this again and try different varieties of squash and beans! :)

Wow this was really delicious! I bought green salsa (Mrs Renfro's) and mashed 2 avocados into 1/2 cup of salsa. This cut the cook time down to about 30 mintues. Definitely will make this again.
