My favorite fall/winter pasta! Loaded with sautéed butternut squash, thyme + sage. It's also almost too easy to make!

Instructions
- In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook pasta according to package instructions; drain well.
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add breadcrumbs and cook, stirring, until browned and toasted, about 3-5 minutes; season with salt and pepper, to taste. Set aside.
- Melt 2 tablespoons butter in the skillet over medium heat. Add butternut squash and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden brown and tender, about 6-8 minutes; set aside.
- Melt remaining 6 tablespoons butter in the skillet over low heat, 1 tablespoon at a time, until the butter starts to foam. Add garlic, thyme and sage to the skillet, and cook, stirring frequently, until fragrant, about 1 minute. Stir in pasta and butternut squash until well combined.
- Serve immediately, topped with breadcrumbs, garnished with Parmesan and parsley, if desired.
