  • Yield: 1 1/2 cups 1x

Description

If autumn were an enchilada sauce, it would taste like this. Feel free to substitute another fall squash in place of the acorn squash.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 3/4 c. roasted acorn squash, pureed
  • 1/2 c. chicken stock or vegetable broth
  • 2 tbsp. greek yogurt or sour cream
  • 2 tbsp. sweet onion, chopped
  • 1 1/2 tsp. vinegar
  • 1/2 tsp. cumin
  • 1/2 tsp. cilantro, dried
  • 1/2 tsp. sea salt
  • 23 jalepeno sliced, jarred
  • 1 clove garlic

Instructions

  1. Add ingredients to a high-powered blender or food processor.
  2. Process until smooth, about 2 minutes.
  3. Add a tablespoon more of stock at a time to thin sauce if necessary.
  4. Pour over enchiladas. (I stuffed these with sautéed onions, kale, black beans, monterey jack, and rotisserie chicken.)

Notes

• Need acorn squash roasting instructions? Try this method and reduce roasting time to 30-40 minutes.

• If you happen to have any leftover sauce, it’s great poured over a quinoa or rice bowl.
