Ingredients:

Serving

4 calabacitas or you can substitute
zucchini or yellow squash, sliced in 1/2 inch slices
1 large white onion, chopped
3 tbsp. oil (her recipe says mantequilla, which i think is butter) i'm using olive because it is better for hubby.
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 chopped green chilies, fresh, seeded and deveined
24 oz. bag of frozen corn
1 cup grated cheddar cheese
(i used half monterey jack and half cheddar and it was more likely a cup and a half.)

Directions:

Saute squash and onion in oil until barely tender.
Add garlic, chilies, saute a few minutes more to soften the garlic a little bit.
Add corn and cheese; mix well.
Put in buttered (or oiled) 1-quart casserole and bake at 400 for 20 minutes.
