    ground cumin. Stir to combine and cook for 5 minutes, stirring every
    minute or so.

    Notes:

    * You can use any type summer squash you have. Additionally, you can
    also use all zucchini or all yellow squash.
    * Instead of fresh peppers, you can use a 4 oz can of diced green
    chiles. Make sure to drain them before using them.
    * If poblanos and jalapenos are too spicy for your liking, you can
    use 1 large or 2 small bell peppers instead.
    * Don't have cotija cheese? Substitute it with crumbled feta cheese
    or leave it out completely.
