Butternut Squash Pasta

Description

Consider serving butternut squash pasta with side dishes that create a refreshing contrast to the richness of the pasta, like a green salad with a tangy homemade salad dressing. Roasted vegetables such as cauliflower, Brussels sprouts or broccoli add both color and texture to the plate. For a complete meal, you could also include a protein like grilled chicken or sauteed shrimp.

Ingredient:

  • 1 small butternut squash (about 2-1/2 pounds)
  • 8 ounces uncooked spaghetti
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/3 cup chopped shallot
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
  • 2 teaspoons lemon juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon pepper
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • Crumbled cooked bacon, optional
