HI QuePasa & all, here's the recipe. I hope you'll like it. I think that it's very easy to do and it's delicious.

Ingredients: 3 squashes (not very big), butter, salt, "quesitos" (I don't know how you call it in USA. We have small triangle pieces of a soft cheese in Spain that you can buy in a small box. That cheese is as tender and soft as butter. I think that if you don't know what i'm talking about, you can use a cheese that melts good, but not mozarella ;the more similar to quesitos is Camembert).

Peel the squashes, wash and cut them in pieces, not very big. Boile them. After they're soft, strain them.
Then, put the pieces in a food processor with the cheese (cut a piece not very big, like a half handfull), salt and butter (one coffee spoon, no more because it would be very oily).

Mix everything and it will be ready to eat. Also, you can boil two potatoes in pieces with the squashes and put less than a half glass of milk in the mix, in the end. The milk will do the pur�e softer, but get ready to eat it, because in three days it will be bad. The vegetables with the milk ferment quickly. Anyway, if you don't eat all and you don't put the milk first time in the mix, next time you heat it, you'll put milk.

You'll see the diference, maybe you don't like it.

Best wishes,
Ena. Big Grin

Muchisimas gracias!!!!!!!!!!!

I can't wait to try it. I'm not quite sure what kind of cheese you're talking about but I think I can figure it out.

I'll let you know how it goes after I make it. Thanks again! Smiler

I think the cheese that Ena is talking about is the "laughing cow" cheese that comes in a small round box. I can buy it here in Texas at my supermarket. They are individual pieces of cheese wrapped in foil, very soft.

Bingo madrile�a wannabe, "La Vaca Que R�e" (The Laughing Cow) is it! We were not sure you had it there so did not dare to use the brand name.

Now that you mention it, I remember seeing the brand in England once and Ena and I laughed at the literal translation from the Spanish brand name.

Saludos,

I can't believe I saw my well-used recipe on this thread. I've made this many times with my friend from cartagena, but we've been using cream cheese and instead of milk, we just added a bit of the water that the veggies were cooked in. Sabroso
