It is tasty, and fun, and made with tortilla chips. A great way to use them up when they start to get a little stale.
Ingredients:
1 samll onion, chopped
1 small green bell pepper, chopped

Pasta with Green Beans, Corn & Jalapenos

 

 

Vegetable Lasagna

 

Yellow Squash & Scallion Quiche

Stuffed Squash

Macaroni & Cheese with Tomatoes & Scallions

Pumpkin Soup

Bought a cheese pumpkin.
Looked a lot like this.
Leonard cut it in half for me (horizontally!) . We scooped out the seeds and put it cut side down on a lined rimmed baking sheet. Baked it at 400 F for about an hour, till it was easily pierced with a fork.
Scooped out the "flesh". Discarded the skin. Put it into the food processor in batches and pureed it. Then put it in 1-2 cup portions in ziplock bags and froze it. Total = 12 cups.
Tonight I used the first 2 cup batch to make Pumpkin Soup.
