I’m all about fall these days, and with October 1st already passed us I can’t wait to experiment in the kitchen more this month. Speaking of, I tried out The Food Gays recipe of Butternut Squash Pasta. It was so good, I love squash for the fall, it’s total comfort food. This recipe was very easy and not too time consuming, and it’s basically like a healthy version of mac and cheese. Here are the ingredients:
2 cups steamed butternut squash, pureed 1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded 2 teaspoons coconut oil 1/4 cup coconut milk |
salt and pepper, to taste 1/2 teaspoon paprika 4 cups pasta fresh parsley, roughly chopped (to serve) |
Method:Steam butternut squash. Remove skin, and blitz in a food processor to create a puree. Transfer to a pot on medium heat. Add coconut oil, coconut milk, salt, pepper, and paprika. Gradually add cheddar cheese, stirring consistantly.Once everything is incorperated, taste for seasoning and adjust as needed. Lower heat to minimum.Meanwhile, cook pasta. Once cooked and drained, add pasta to the butternut squash cheese sauce, and toss everything together. Top with roughly chopped paslery and serve immediately.Next up? Going to try The Food Gays Butternut Squash Pizza. Yes please.
