I think that New Mexico has a law on the books that says that everyone has to eat squash regularly. That's okay, because once you've tried this 'squash and chiles', you will like squash! PS zucchini is a green squash...or you can use yellow squash.

I thought this dish was okay, but not great. I found it to be a little bit too oily for my taste.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my dish turned out bland. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what happened.

I added a can of diced tomatoes to this recipe, and it was delicious! It gave the dish a little bit more depth of flavor.

I'm not a big fan of green chilies, so I used a mild chili instead. It was still very flavorful, but not too spicy.

This is a great recipe for using up leftover zucchini. I had a few zucchini that were starting to go bad, so I decided to make this dish. It was so good, I'm glad I didn't just throw them away!
