- 2 stalks celery, chopped
- 1 large poblano pepper, seeded and chopped
- 1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and chopped
- 32 ounces chicken broth
- 1 teaspoon salt

- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
- Place squash, cut-side down, in a baking pan and add 1-inch of water. Cover pan with aluminum foil.
