Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 large onion peeled, quartered and sliced thin
  • 1 1/2 pounds crimini mushrooms sliced thin
  • 2 zucchini sliced thin
  • 2 summer squash sliced thin
  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • 4 tablespoons butter
  • 1 tablespoon cuban seasoning McCormick makes a good one
  • 2 teaspoons cumin
  • 1/4 teaspoon chipotle chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/2 cups crumbled California panela cheese or queso fresco
  • 1 package corn tortillas

Instructions

  1. Chop the veggies and leave in separate piles. Mix the salt and spices in a small bowl and sprinkle evenly over all the veggies.
  2. Place 1 tablespoon of butter in a large skillet and heat to high heat. Once the butter is melted, add the onions and garlic. Saute for 1-2 minutes until just barely soft. Remove from the skillet and add 2 tablespoons of butter. Once the butter is melted, add the mushrooms and saute' and stir until brown and cooked through, about 5-8 minutes. Remove and add the last tablespoon of butter to the skillet. Add the zucchini and summer squash to the skillet. Saute and stir for 2-3 minutes until golden, but just barely cooked through and still firm.
  3. To serve, place a tortilla on a plate (you can double them up for extra stability) and load it with veggies. Top each taco with a generous sprinkling of crumbled panela cheese. Serve warm.
