Yield 12 mushroom-squash tacos

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 tablespoon vegetable oil
3 scallions, sliced (white and light green parts separated)
1 1/2 cups diced butternut squash
8 ounces thinly sliced shiitake mushrooms
2 cloves garlic, minced
4 teaspoons chili powder
24 4-inch corn tortillas, warmed
Thinly sliced jalapeños, for topping
Lime wedges, for serving

Steps:

In a large nonstick skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add the white and light green scallion parts, the butternut squash, shiitakes and garlic, and cook until the squash begins to soften, about 3 minutes. Stir in the chili powder and cook 30 seconds. Add 2 cups water and simmer until the vegetables are tender and a thick sauce forms, about 8 minutes.
Layer 2 tortillas together to make 12 separate stacks, then divide the mushroom mixture among the tortillas. Top with the dark green scallion parts and the jalapeños. Serve the tacos with the lime wedges.
