With all the stress and business around my Winter Squash recipe is super easy, and will basically cook by itself in the oven while you work on wrapping presents, prepare other foods, or just sit by the fire with a nice glass of something. Plus it is delicious.
- 4 C Butternut Squash {small to medium sized squash}
- 1 Splash Olive Oil {about a tablespoon}
- 1 Tbs rubbed Sage
- 4 Sage leaves
- 1 onion sliced
- salt & pepper
- 1 package of orecchiette or other pasta cooked according to directions
- 4 TB white balsamic vinegar
- Some fresh parsley for garnish
- Heat Olive Oil in large ovenproof skillet {I use a cast iron pan}. When hot,
- Add Sage, Butternut Squash, onions and a pinch of salt. Sauté for a couple of minutes, be sure to give it a good stir. Then,
- Place the skillet in the oven and bake for about 35 minutes.
- Prepare pasta according to directions while squash is baking.
- When onions are fragrant and squash has softened add about 4 Tablespoons of white balsamic vinegar. Return to the oven for about five minutes are so while the acid cooks off, then
- Remove skillet from the oven, add salt and pepper to taste. Add drained pasta in batches to the skillet and mix it throughly with the vegetables.
- Garnish with parsley before serving
