Ingredients

4 calabacitas or you can substitute

zucchini or yellow squash, sliced in 1/2 inch slices

1 large white onion, chopped

3 Tbs. oil (her recipe says mantequilla, which I think is butter) I'm using olive oil because it is better for hubby.

2 cloves garlic, minced

2 chopped green chilies, fresh, seeded and deveined

24 oz. bag of frozen corn

1 cup grated cheddar cheese

(I used half monterey jack and half cheddar and it was more likely a cup and a half.)

Directions

Saute squash and onion in oil until barely tender.

Add garlic, chilies, saute a few minutes more to soften the garlic a little bit.

Add corn and cheese; mix well.

Put in buttered (or oiled) 1-quart casserole and bake at 400 for 20 minutes.
