Add garlic and jalapenos and cook, stirring, 1 minute more. Add paprika, cumin, oregano, cinnamon and cloves; cook stirring, until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add squash, tomatoes and broth; bring to a simmer. Simmer, covered, until the squash is just tender, 10 to 12 minutes. Add beans and hominy. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer the mixture to a 2- to 3-quart baking dish.
 
To prepare topping: Combine 1 tablespoon oil and 1/4 tablespoon salt in a small bowl; brush on both sides of tortillas. Cut the tortillas into 3/4-inch strips and cut the strips in half. Scatter the tortilla strips over the filling.
 
Bake the potpie in the center of the oven until the filling is bubbling, 25 to 30 minutes. Sprinkle cheese on top and return to the oven until melted.
