CALABACITAS CON QUESO | Mexican Squash with Cheesy Panela | Meatless ❤

CALABACITAS CON QUESO dish is an oldie, but definitely a goodie. This dish takes me way back to my childhood, the flavors in this dish are out of this world delicious. It is such an easy dish to prepare, and it is so perfect this time of year when the weather is changing and the leaves are starting to fall because it's soupy but yet hearty. There are many ways to cook CALABACITAS, but this dish has sweet onions, green onions, yellow peppers, tomatoes, cumin, Mexican oregano, fresh garlic, and cilantro but what gives it a notch above, and the best part is the cubes of Panela cheese that melts into soft pillows to top it. I like to serve it with Mexican rice and freshly made corn tortillas. A dish made for a king.
