Meanwhile, place the butternut squash half into a microwave-safe dish cut-side-down, and pour in the water. Cook in the microwave until tender, 12 to 15 minutes. Once cool enough to handle, scoop out the flesh and dice; place into a mixing bowl and set aside.

For a richer flavor, roast the butternut squash instead of microwaving it. Toss it with olive oil, salt, and pepper, then roast at 400°F (200°C) for 30-40 minutes, or until tender and slightly caramelized.
Feel free to customize the filling with other vegetables like bell peppers, zucchini, or mushrooms.
If you don't have cotija cheese, feta cheese can be used as a substitute.

    This recipe is a keeper! I've made it several times and it's always a crowd-pleaser. I sometimes add a pinch of chili powder to the filling for a little extra heat.
