1 cup butternut squash puree*
1 teaspoon chipotle pepper in adobo sauce (seeds removed (unless you want a LOT of heat, in that case, leave them in), chopped)
1 teaspoon adobo sauce
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper to taste
Bread of your choice
8 ounces pepper jack cheese (sliced)
Butter

Steps:

In a small bowl, mix together butternut squash, chipotle pepper, adobo sauce, kosher salt, and pepper.
Lay down the bread slices and, using a butter knife, spread 1/4 cup butternut squash mixture on one side of each sandwich. Lay the pepper jack cheese evenly over the top of the chipotle butternut spread and close the sandwich.
Generously butter the outside of each sandwich on both sides.
In a large frying pan over medium-low heat, cook the sandwiches, flipping often, until golden-brown on the outside and the cheese is melted inside, about 10 minutes.
Serve immediately.
