when I make that recipe, I don't peel/seed/cut up the squash -- I actually just cut it in half vertically, scoop out the seeds and string-y good, and then bake it.
I...didn't even notice that the recipe said to peel and dice before cooking. I just popped mine in the oven halved and scooped so it would be ready tomorrow when I'm actually going to eat it.
(Minor rant about Veg Times recipes - "taco sauce" and "enchilada sauce" are not ingredients in my world! At least link to a homemade version, please magazine? So I know what the hell these things are supposed to taste like?)

Yeah, I was wondering that too, mostly since the other main ingredients are cream cheese, sugar, and cinnamon. I was wondering how those flavors would go together.
Jesus, ita. Just reading all that....could the ER have been staffed by bigger assholes overnight? I'm horrified.
I spent lots of money at hardware stores today: more stripper, caulk, paint (hope it matches well enough), mini roller, knifes edge, spackle, sandpaper.
Once upon a time, the things I shopped for meant less, not more, work for me...
I think the cats are feeling the cooler temps. Me, I just put on long pants and a fleece. Them, they're rolling into tighter balls and burrowing further into the covers or me.

Eh, I use salsa more often than not. I think "taco sauce" and "enchilada sauce" are runnier than salsa and have no chunky veggie pieces like onion and whatnot in it. (I think.) And it turns out just fine with salsa.

Pretty damn tastily.
How do you think it would go with a fruity salsa?

That's actually really good to know, since I also have salsa to use up! And half a Napa cabbage to stand in for the lettuce, which means I can make these with no shopping. Awesomecakes.
[edit: Wait, I'm not sure I have Monterrey Jack cheese. Might have to use cheddar. Eh, close enough.]

Oooh, interesting. I think I'd worry that the overall effect might be too sweet. But I've had fruity salsa that also managed to be spicy enough to make me cry, and if it's that kind of salsa, it might work.
My major culinary achievement for the day was to put chopped-up apples and cinnamon inside crescent rolls. They turned out okay. Made the house smell nice.
