Ingredients

Onion - ½ head
Tomatoes - 2 pieces
Garlic - 1 clove
Ground Chipotle Pepper - 2 teaspoons
Butternut Squash - 14.1 oz
Canned black beans - 7.1 oz
Jalapeño pepper - 1 piece
Cheddar cheese - 1.1 oz

Step by Step guide

Step 1

Heat a skillet over high heat. Sauté the onion, tomatoes, and garlic in a dry skillet until charred on all sides, then transfer everything from the skillet to a food processor with the 'Chipotle', and blend until smooth, adding salt to taste.

Step 2

Place the pumpkin in a microwave-safe container, add a little water, cover with plastic wrap, and microwave for 10 minutes until soft. (Alternatively, steam until soft.)

Step 3

Mash with a fork and season with salt. Add the black beans and mash the mixture again with a fork, then add the jalapeño pepper, cheddar cheese, cilantro, and lime juice.

Step 4

Spread the mixture on 4 tortillas, covering half of each. Fold the tortillas in half and press down.

Step 5

Cook in a dry skillet over high heat until golden brown and the filling is heated through. Cut into 4 pieces and serve with sauce, a wedge of lime, and cilantro.
