- 2 cups squash (yellow, zucchini, butternut, etc) cut in 1" cubes
- ½ medium onion diced
- 1 banana pepper diced
- 1 tsp coconut or olive oil
- 1-2 tsp taco seasoning
Heat the oil over medium high heat. Once warm, saute the onion and banana pepper if using for 1 minute, stirring frequently.
Turn the heat down to medium and add in the squash. Saute for another minute or two, stirring frequently. If using butternut squash, saute for 10 minutes or until easily pierced with a fork.
Add 1 teaspoon of taco seasoning at a time, using the scent of the seasoning as a guide. Stir well and continue sauteing for another 3 minutes, still stirring frequently.
Remove from heat and assemble in tacos as you would your usual beans or meat.
