ISA'S BUTTERNUT SQUASH VEGAN ALFREDO PASTA

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Combine squash and 1 tablespoon oil on a baking sheet; toss until coated.
• Roast in the preheated oven until tender and lightly browned, about 25 minutes.
• Bring a small pot of water to a boil. Add cashews; simmer until softened, about 20 minutes. Drain.
• Combine cashews and 1 1/2 cup broth in a blender; blend until very smooth. Add roasted squash, remaining 1/2 cup broth, miso, nutritional yeast, and lemon juice; blend until sauce is combined.
• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook bow-tie pasta, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 11 minutes. Drain, reserving 1 cup pasta water. Transfer pasta to a serving bowl.
• Heat remaining 2 tablespoons oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion and salt; cook and stir until golden brown, about 9 minutes. Add sage and stir until fragrant, about 1 minute. Pour in cider; cook, stirring up browned bits from the bottom of the skillet, 1 to 2 minutes.
• Stir half of the cashew sauce into the pasta. Add onion mixture. Stir in enough reserved pasta water to thin and warm sauce. Season with pepper. Garnish with parsley.

FETTUCCINE WITH BUTTERNUT SQUASH ALFREDO SAUCE

Steps:

• Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil. Cook fettuccine at a boil until tender yet firm to the bite, about 8 minutes.
• While pasta cooks, combine cream cheese, butternut squash, butter, milk, garlic, and nutmeg in a large saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring often, until all ingredients are blended. Stir in Parmesan cheese and mix until smooth.
• Heat oil in a large saute pan over medium-high heat. Saute zucchini, yellow squash, and mushrooms until tender, 7 to 10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
• Drain pasta, toss with vegetables on a large serving platter, and pour Alfredo sauce over top.

BUTTERNUT SQUASH ALFREDO WITH CRISPY PANCETTA AND SAGE RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to boil.
• Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the pancetta and cook for 3-4 minutes, until starting to crisp. Add the sage leaves and continue cooking until the pancetta and sage are crispy. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain.
• Reduce the heat to medium low, then add the shallot and garlic to the skillet, along with more oil if needed and a pinch of salt. Cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
• Deglaze the pan with the white wine, scraping up any browned bits from the pan. Add the butternut squash and chicken stock. Cover and bring to boil, then reduce the heat to medium low and simmer until the squash is tender, about 5 minutes.
• Transfer the squash mixture to a blender and blend until smooth. Add the cream and blend to incorporate.
• Cook the pasta according to the package instructions until al dente.
• Pour the sauce back into the pan and return to medium heat. Season with salt, then gradually add the Parmesan, stirring between each addition to prevent clumping.
• Reserve some of the pasta cooking water, then transfer the pasta directly from the boiling water into the sauce. Toss until well coated, adding some of the reserved pasta water as needed to loosen the sauce. Add about half of the crisped pancetta and sage and stir to incorporate.
• Transfer the pasta to serving bowls and garnish with the remaining sage and pancetta.
• Enjoy!
