I was raised by an Italian-American mother who, in the 1970s, grew her own basil (because she couldn’t find any in the local grocery stores), zucchini (for those delicious flowers), and tomatoes (because the ones in the store tasted like “a potato”). My mom taught us to love all kinds of food and revere high-quality ingredients. I am now trying to follow in my mother’s footsteps and am on a mission to help my daughters become adventurous eaters who have a healthy respect for seasonal food raised locally. My daughters and I grow vegetables and go to the farmers’ market. We also love to shop at Piedmont Grocery and Trader Joe’s. When I’m not hanging out with my daughters or cooking, I like to contribute to cookbooks (including Williams-Sonoma’s Food Made Fast and Foods of the World series), work as an editor, and write about food for \u003cstrong>Bay Area Bites\u003c/strong> and \u003cstrong>Denise's Kitchen\u003c/strong>.

every day and anytime you want a nice, warm utterly delicious bowl of soup—I added a few tart apples, plenty of fresh ginger root, and a dash of cream.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For a big gathering, serve this as passed appetizers in shot glasses, topped with a little dollop of crème fraiche and chopped fresh herbs for garnish.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_103304\" class=\"wp-caption

But something gorgeous, smooth and silky, with loads of flavor, is just the ticket. I prefer to serve soups that are filled with seasonal vegetables, and at this time of year, there's nothing more seasonal and more universally friendly (read: kid-and-picky-family-eater-friendly) than a simple yet seductive bowl of creamy butternut squash soup.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Just to make this a little more special than your everyday butternut squash soup—and I daresay that this could be eaten

Make the roasted butternut up to 2 days in advance, then just stick it in an airtight container in the fridge until you are ready to use it.

Shred chicken and keep the broth in a separate dish.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>3. Heat the same pan (now empty) to medium heat and then add in the oil, chopped Anaheim peppers and onions. If using jalapeno, add now. Sauté for 10 minutes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>4. Add in the rest of your chili powder plus your cumin and oregano. Be sure to crush the oregano in your hand first (as this releases the flavors more thoroughly into the dish). Add salt and pepper to taste.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>5. Add in your shredded chicken (if using chopped leftover chicken add in now), broth, and tomatoes and stir until everything is thoroughly mixed in. Taste and then add more salt if needed. Simmer for 15 - 20 minutes on low heat.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>6. Heat a medium pan (I like to use cast iron) to warm up your tortillas. I use medium high heat. Add in a little oil (must enough to barely cover the bottom of the pan) and fry each tortilla until warmed through and slightly crisp. Set aside on a plate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>7. Mix the cilantro and lime juice into your filling and stir. Taste one more time to see if you need to add any salt or pepper and then remove from heat.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>8. Mix the milk into your sour cream (whisking to combine) and then set up a workspace with your 9 x 13\" pan (which you should spray or line with oil), tortillas, grated cheeses, and filling.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>9. Using a ladle, scoop mostly sauce (i.e., not much meat or vegetables) into the bottom of the casserole dish and then lay 6 of your heated tortillas into the bottom of the pan. Top with half your filling followed by drizzling on half your sour cream (making sure you even distribute). Set half your cheese on top of that and then repeat by laying on the remaining tortillas, filling, sour cream and cheeses.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>10. Set dish in the oven for about 30 minutes (25 if using a convection oven) or until the entire casserole is warmed through and the cheese is bubbly. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>11. Serve and enjoy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Cheesy Squash Enchilada Casserole Variation\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nFollow the above instructions with the following alteration:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>1. Instead of cooking the chicken in step 1, roast your peeled and chopped squash in the oven with some olive oil and salt until al dente.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>2. In step 5 leave out the chicken (obviously) and add in ½ cup vegetable broth instead. Also, do not add in your squash yet as you don't want to overcook it.

Line a small baking sheet with aluminum foil.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>2.\tCut the neck off the squash and set it aside. Cut the bulb in half and scoop out and discard the seeds. Brush each half inside and out with about 1 1/2 teaspoons of the canola oil. Sprinkle the cavities with salt and pepper and tuck a sprig of sage into each. Place cut side down on the baking sheet and roast for about 1 hour, or until completely tender. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>3.\tRemove the squash from the oven and set aside until cool enough to handle, then scoop out and reserve the flesh (discard the sage).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>4.\tMeanwhile, using a paring knife or sharp vegetable peeler, peel away the skin from the neck of the squash until you reach the bright orange flesh. Cut the flesh into 1/2-inch pieces (these will be pureed, so don't be concerned if the pieces are irregularly shaped). (You should have approximately 4 cups diced squash.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>5.\tPut the remaining 1 tablespoon canola oil in a stockpot over medium-high heat, add the leeks, carrots, shallots, and onions, and cook, stirring often, for about 6 minutes. Add the diced squash, garlic, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper and cook gently for 3 minutes, reducing the heat as necessary to keep the garlic and squash from coloring. Stir in the honey and cook, stirring, for 2 to 3 minutes. Add the stock and bouquet garni, bring to a simmer, and cook for 10 to 15 minutes, or until the squash is tender. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>6.\tAdd the roasted squash and simmer gently for about 30 minutes for the flavors to blend. Remove from the heat and discard the bouquet garni.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>7.\tTransfer the soup to a blender, in batches, and puree. Strain the soup through a fine strainer into a bowl or other container, tapping the side of the strainer so the soup passes through. (\u003cem>Do not skip this step.

When it is very hot, add the butter and rotate the skillet over the heat as necessary to brown the butter evenly, scraping up any bits that settle in the bottom. As soon as the foaming has subsided and the butter is a hazelnut brown, pour it into the pot of soup, reserving some to drizzle on top of the soup as a garnish. (Be careful not to leave the butter over the heat too long, as it can change from rich brown to black in seconds.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>3.\tLadle the soup into serving bowls.

Line a small baking sheet with aluminum foil.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>2.\tCut the neck off the squash and set it aside. Cut the bulb in half and scoop out and discard the seeds. Brush each half inside and out with about 1 1/2 teaspoons of the canola oil. Sprinkle the cavities with salt and pepper and tuck a sprig of sage into each. Place cut side down on the baking sheet and roast for about 1 hour, or until completely tender. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>3.\tRemove the squash from the oven and set aside until cool enough to handle, then scoop out and reserve the flesh (discard the sage).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>4.\tMeanwhile, using a paring knife or sharp vegetable peeler, peel away the skin from the neck of the squash until you reach the bright orange flesh. Cut the flesh into 1/2-inch pieces (these will be pureed, so don't be concerned if the pieces are irregularly shaped). (You should have approximately 4 cups diced squash.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>5.\tPut the remaining 1 tablespoon canola oil in a stockpot over medium-high heat, add the leeks, carrots, shallots, and onions, and cook, stirring often, for about 6 minutes. Add the diced squash, garlic, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper and cook gently for 3 minutes, reducing the heat as necessary to keep the garlic and squash from coloring. Stir in the honey and cook, stirring, for 2 to 3 minutes. Add the stock and bouquet garni, bring to a simmer, and cook for 10 to 15 minutes, or until the squash is tender. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>6.\tAdd the roasted squash and simmer gently for about 30 minutes for the flavors to blend. Remove from the heat and discard the bouquet garni.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>7.\tTransfer the soup to a blender, in batches, and puree. Strain the soup through a fine strainer into a bowl or other container, tapping the side of the strainer so the soup passes through. (\u003cem>Do not skip this step.

When it is very hot, add the butter and rotate the skillet over the heat as necessary to brown the butter evenly, scraping up any bits that settle in the bottom. As soon as the foaming has subsided and the butter is a hazelnut brown, pour it into the pot of soup, reserving some to drizzle on top of the soup as a garnish. (Be careful not to leave the butter over the heat too long, as it can change from rich brown to black in seconds.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>3.\tLadle the soup into serving bowls.
