Introduction

You're probably familiar with quesadillas made from tortillas and cheese. Squashadillas look deceptively similar- but they're dairy free. Cut them into triangles and dip in salsa for a great party snack. You're probably familiar with quesadillas made from tortillas and cheese.

Ingredients

    2 and 1/2 cups leftover cooked butternut squash or frozen squash warmed in the microwave
    2/3 cup salsa
    Pinch of salt (optional)
    8 small flour tortillas
    Toppings: salsa, tomatoes, tofu sour cream, guacamole

Directions

Combine squash, salsa, and salt, if using, in a bowl.
Spread 1/4 of mixture onto one tortilla and top with another tortilla. Press down lightly to make sure tortillas hold together while cooking (You can also make half-sized squashadillas by spreading filling over 1/2 of a tortilla and folding it over.)
Heat a nonstick griddle or large nonstick frying pan and place the squashadilla on the griddle. Heat for about 2 minutes, use a spatula to flip squashadilla, and heat for 2 mintues more.
Continue flipping and heating until golden brown and starting to crisp on both sides, about 5 or 6 minutes in all. Use spatula to transfer to a plate, cool for a minute, and cut into halves, quarters, or wedges. Repeat for each squashadilla.
Variation: For Beanadillas, substitute a 15 ounce can of vegetarian refired beans for the squash. Add soy or dairy cheese if desired.
