Chipotle Beef Tamales

Chipotle sauce is a spicy puree of tomatoes, chipotle chile peppers, and adobo sauce, and it gives the filling a mild, smoky heat.

• Yield: 12 servings (serving size: 2 tamales)

• Ingredients

  • 24 dried corn husks
  • Cooking spray
  • 1 cup chopped onion
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano

  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 pound ground sirloin
  • 1 (7-ounce) can chipotle sauce
  • 4 1/2 cups Basic Masa Dough
  • 2 cups hot water

  Preparation

  1. Place corn husks in a large bowl; cover with water. Weight husks down with a can; soak 30 minutes. Drain husks.

  2. Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Coat pan with cooking spray. Add onion to pan; sauté 3 minutes. Add garlic; sauté 1 minute, stirring frequently. Add oregano, salt, and beef; cook 8 minutes or until beef is browned, stirring to crumble. Add chipotle sauce; cook 2 minutes, stirring frequently.

  3. Preheat oven to 450°.

  4. Working with one husk at a time, place about 3 tablespoons Basic Masa Dough in the center of husk about 1/2 inch from top of husk; press dough into a 4-inch-long by 3-inch-wide rectangle. Spoon about 1 heaping tablespoon beef mixture down one side of dough. Using the corn husk as your guide, fold husk over tamale, being sure to cover filling with dough; fold over 1 more time. Fold bottom end of husk under. Place tamale, seam side down, on the rack of a broiler pan lined with a damp towel. Repeat procedure with remaining husks, Basic Masa Dough, and filling. Cover filled tamales with another damp towel. Pour 2 cups hot water in the bottom of a broiler pan; top with prepared rack.

Squash and Spinach Lasagna

Total Time::1 hr 15 min

---

Yield:

8 servings

Ingredients

• 9 no-boil lasagna noodles
• 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
• 3 cloves garlic, finely chopped
• 1 large onion, finely chopped
• Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
• 4 cups lowfat (1-percent) milk
• 1/4 cup cornstarch
• Two 5-ounce packages baby spinach
• 1/2 cup fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves, finely chopped, plus more, for garnish
• 1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
• 1 butternut squash (about 2 1/2 pounds), peeled, seeded, halved lengthwise and cut into 1/4-inch-thick half-moons
• 2 cups shredded part-skim mozzarella

Directions

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Soak the lasagna noodles in warm water.
• Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic, onions and salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are tender and browned, about 10 minutes. If the mixture becomes too dry, add a tablespoon or two of water.
• Meanwhile, stir together 1/2 cup of the milk and the cornstarch in a small bowl until smooth. Heat the remaining 3 1/2 cups milk in a large saucepan until bubbling. Stir the cornstarch mixture into the milk and bring to a boil. Simmer, stirring, until the milk thickens to the consistency of a thin batter, about 5 minutes. Stir in the onion mixture, spinach, parsley and nutmeg, and cook until the spinach wilts. Season with salt and pepper. Remove from the heat.
• Drain the noodles. Spread 1 cup of the spinach mixture over the bottom of a 13- by 9- by 2-inch glass or ceramic baking dish. Arrange 3 lasagna noodles over the spinach. Arrange half of the squash over the noodles, overlapping slightly, and sprinkle with one-third of the mozzarella. Spoon 1 cup spinach mixture over the cheese, and top with 3 noodles, the remaining squash and another third of the mozzarella. Top with 1 cup spinach mixture, followed by the last 3 noodles and the remaining 1 cup spinach mixture. Cover tightly with foil; reserve the remaining mozzarella.
• Bake for 40 minutes. Uncover and sprinkle the remaining mozzarella over the top. Bake until bubbling and the squash is tender, about 15 minutes. Let stand at least 10 minutes before serving.

Cook’s Note: For freezing and reheating, allow the lasagna to cool completely. Divide into 8 even portions and store in a freezer-safe resealable plastic bag or container. Transfer to a microwave-safe plate, loosely cover with plastic wrap and microwave until hot, 4 to 5 minutes.
