Ingredients

  • 1 1 1/2 lb butternut squash, peeled, seeded and cut into 1/2” cubes
  • 1/2 cup chopped onion
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh rosemary
  • salt and pepper
  • 8 oz short cut pasta
  • 4 tablespoons butter
  • 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese divided
  • 3 tablespoons toasted pine nuts walnuts,or a combination of both

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat the oven to 400ºF. In a large bowl, combine the cubed squash, onion, olive oil and rosemary. Season with salt and pepper and toss to combine. Pour out onto a baking sheet in one layer and roast for 30-40 minutes, or until roasted and tender, stirring once halfway through.
  2. When the squash is almost done, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook until al dente. Drain and return to the pot.
  3. While the pasta is cooking, place the butter in a small pan over medium-low heat. Melt the butter, stirring occasionally, until it it turns golden brown, about 7 minutes. Stir in the lemon juice. (The butter may foam up and pop so stand back when adding the lemon juice.)
  4. Stir the butter and 1/3 cup of the Parmesan into with the pasta. Add the butternut squash and stir to combine.
  5. Serve topped with the remaining Parmesan and the nuts.
