Steps:

• Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the poblanos and bell pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender and browned in spots, about 5 minutes.

• Make the custard: Whisk the eggs, chicken broth, half-and-half, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a large bowl. Add the creamed corn, bread cubes, 2 cups cheese, the scallion greens and poblano mixture; toss gently until combined. Let sit until the bread is soaked, at least 30 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 350˚. Butter a 3-quart baking dish. Transfer the stuffing to the prepared dish. Sprinkle with the remaining 1/2 cup cheese and dot with the remaining 2 tablespoons butter.

Steps:

• Heat olive oil in a large skillet. Add onion and pepper and saute over medium heat until these vegetables are tender. Add the scallions, chili pepper and squash. Cook over low heat about 10 minutes, until the squash begins to soften.
• Stir in the cornbread and add enough stock to moisten the mixture lightly. It should be somewhat crumbly because it will pick up moisture from the squash as it cooks, as well as from the turkey or chicken.
