Melt butter in a large, heavy skillet, then add onion & garlic. Cook until lightly tinged with brown. Add squash & tomatoes; stir-fry rapidly, sprinkling with chiles, caribe, salt, oregano & cumin. Cook just until squash are tender-crisp to bite & brighter in color. Sprinkle with cheeses; turn off heat, cover pan & let cheeses melt. Then serve immediately.
