The Deer Valley Resort in Park City, UT, is known for being one of the premiere places to hit the slopes in the United States. Ski magazine has ranked it in the top 3 for over 20 years. But in addition to being known for its amazing downhill action, it’s on-site food—the hearty turkey chili in particular—is known for being just as memorable. Although we couldn’t get their chef to share the recipe for that specific dish, they did share another guest favorite, Roasted Butternut Squash and Anasazi Bean Enchiladas. These sweet and savory enchiladas can be made with prechopped butternut squash (available in the fresh section at most grocery stores) to make this a family-friendly weeknight meal you’ll want to make through the winter. Can’t find Anasazi beans? Pinto beans are a perfect substitute.
