I have made this dish an annual tradition for Thanksgiving dinner for the past 4 or 5 years and it is always a winner. Those who already like butternut squash love this dish, and those who weren't big fans before become fans. I can only seem to find pasilla chiles here in Phoenix, but after some research I have found that poblanos are often sold under the name pasilla in Northern Mexico, so the pasillas I have been using all of these years may be poblanos. Although these are mild chiles, fair warning, occasionally, these chiles turn out to be pretty hot.

I have never cooked butternut squash but see so much about it so I thouhgt I'd give this recipe a try. My husband and I both enjoyed it but thought it could use a little more heat. I don't know if being from New Mexico has anything to do with it, but I think next time I'll try green chiles instead of the poblano and probably increase the chili powder or use chipotle chile powder. Also, you have to saute it about 5-7 minutes longer than the recipe states unless you like your squash really al dente.

This recipe is easy and very tasty. I added a bit of cumin and used canned green chilis. It did take a bit longer to saute then recipe indicated but well worth the wait.

I used canned green chilis instead of poblano. It was very good but would like to make with poblano next time. Delicious!

Even my unbelieving 8 year old likes this and it's not macaroni and cheese which is typically her only source of nutrition.

Very good. I did it with pasilla chiles instead of poblanos because they were all I could find at my supermarket and it worked out quite nicely.
