Esquites (Creamy Corn Salad) Recipe

Pinto Bean Chili with Corn and Winter Squash

Pinto Bean Chili with Corn and Winter Squash Recipe

The spiciness of this light yet satisfying chili is complemented by the subtle sweetness of corn and winter squash. Queso fresco is a crumbly, slightly salty Mexican cheese that's available in many large supermarkets. If you can't find it, substitute crumbled feta or farmer cheese. For a heartier chili, add one cup thawed frozen meatless crumbles. For a vegan version, use shredded soy cheddar or mozzarella cheese.
