Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 8

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.
