This pasta dish combines the sweetness of baked butternut squash with the savory richness of Parmesan cheese, creating a flavorful and comforting meal.
Ingredients: 1 butternut squash, peeled, seeded, and cut into cubes. 2 tablespoons olive oil. Salt and pepper to taste. 8 ounces pasta of your choice. 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese. 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley optional.
Instructions: Turn on the oven and heat it up to 400F 200C. Put the cubed butternut squash on a baking sheet and season it with salt and pepper. Brush it with olive oil. Roast in an oven that has already been heated for 25 to 30 minutes, stirring every 15 minutes, until soft and lightly browned. Follow the directions on the package to cook the pasta until it's al dente while the squash is roasting. Drain the pasta and set it aside. Save 1/4 cup of the pasta water. Put the cooked pasta, roasted butternut squash, and the pasta water you saved in a large skillet. Toss gently over medium-low heat until everything is heated through and well mixed. Grate some Parmesan cheese on top after taking it off the heat. If you want, you can sprinkle chopped fresh parsley on top and serve right away.
