Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Bring a pot of water to a boil. Cook the macaroni until al dente according to the package instructions. Drain, rinse with cold water to stop the cooking process and set aside.
- Carefully cut the butternut squash in half lengthwise and remove the seeds. Drizzle half of the squash with olive oil and place it on a rimmed baking sheet cut-side up (reserve the other half of the squash in the fridge for another use). Roast, watching to make sure the surface doesn't get burned (it should have some brown areas, however), until fork-tender, 20 to 25 minutes. Scrape out the flesh into a bowl and mash with a potato masher. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and set aside.
- While the squash is roasting, add the onions and 2 tablespoons of the butter to a large, ovenproof skillet over low to medium-low heat. Cook the onions, stirring occasionally, until they're deep golden brown, about 20 minutes. Remove them to a plate.
- In the same skillet, melt 4 tablespoons of the butter over medium-low heat. Sprinkle over the flour and whisk it to make a thin paste. Cook it for 2 minutes, then whisk in the milk. Cook, whisking gently, until slightly thick, a couple of minutes. Taste and adjust the seasonings. You'll probably want to add more salt!
- Turn the heat to low and stir in the mashed butternut squash. When it is warm, stir in the cheese. If the sauce is overly thick when the cheese is melted, add a splash of milk. Keep stirring until the sauce is nice and hot, then stir in the macaroni. Taste and add more salt if needed.
- Melt the remaining 2 tablespoons butter in a pan and combine it with the breadcrumbs. Sprinkle the breadcrumbs over the macaroni and bake (I do it straight in the skillet) until the crumbs are golden and the edges bubbly, about 15 minutes. Serve immediately.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over a medium heat. Once melted stir in the flour and mustard powder. Mix to a smooth paste and cook, stirring for 1 min.
- Gradually whisk in the milk until you have a smooth sauce. Simmer for 3-4 mins, whisking constantly until the sauce has thickened. Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the cheddar. Once melted, taste for seasoning, I like to add a generous grind of black pepper.
- Put the butternut noodles into a large bowl and pour over the cheese sauce, mixing well so that every strand is coated in the sauce then tip into a large ovenproof dish (about 25 x 30cm). In a small bowl mix together the Parmesan, breadcrumbs, thyme and cayenne.
- Scatter the breadcrumb mixture over the top of the butternut then bake for 20-25 mins until bubbling, crisp and golden.

BUTTERNUT MAC-N-CHEESE
When Kim Quay needed a name for her catering and prepared food business, in Morrisville, Pa., her mother suggested Comfort Food. Ms. Quay, whose menu is based on whatever foods the local farmers happen to be providing, thought the name was apt. She likes to take traditional foods and recreate them based on the season and the produce that is available. Adding pureed butternut squash to this dish cuts the cheese in half but adds more flavor. Ms. Quay said it's one of her most popular fall dishes. "We sell so much of that, and you don't have to feel as bad eating it,'' she said. "You might not want to eat it every single day, but you're still lowering the guilt factor.''

BUTTERNUT MAC 'N' CHEESE
I tripled this recipe and made 5 quarts. You can change the squash to macaroni ratio to suit your taste (more squash makes it more like casserole, as listed it's pretty much a glorified mac n' cheese). This is the best mac n' cheese you'll ever have, thanks to A Veggie Venture's Thanksgiving Recipe tour. http://kitchen-parade-veggieventure.blogspot.com/

Steps:
- Squash:.
- Preheat oven to 400°F.
- Cut squash in half, lengthwise and rub cut side with olive oil.
- Place cut-side down on a baking sheet and roast for 60 - 75 minutes or until completely cooked and soft.
- Scoop out flesh while still warm and break apart with a spoon.
- Timing-wise, finish the squash roughly the same time the pasta and the sauce is cooked so that it's still warm.
- NOTE: You can change the ratio of squash to macaroni if you want it to be more or less squashy-I think this ratio is ideal because is comes out like mac n' cheese but there is still a good amount of squash hiding in there --.
- Cook macaroni in salted water.
- Let drain well. Timing-wise, finish the pasta and the sauce about the same time.
- Sauce:.
- In a saucepan, melt the butter on MEDIUM heat until shimmery.
- Stir in the onion as it's prepped, then the nutmeg and white pepper, cook until onions soften.
- Stir in the flour and mix well.
- A tablespoon at a time, add the milk, incorporating each tablespoon well before adding another. (If you add it all at once, or without working in each time, there's risk of ending up with a lumpy sauce).
- Stirring often, let the sauce come almost to the boiling point, it will thicken slightly.
- Add the cheese and let melt, adjusting temperature so that the sauce won't boil. (It's not a disaster if it does, since it's going into the casserole, but it'll look curdled).
- COMBINE.
- In a large bowl, break the squash apart, mashing it really, with a wooden spoon.
- Stir in the hot, drained pasta and combine well, distributing the squash throughout. Stir in the sauce and combine well.
- Transfer to a greased baking dish.
- If you like, sprinkle the top with pimento or paprika.
- If making ahead, let cool to room temperature, cover and refrigerate.
- BAKE.
- Return dish to room temperature.
- Bake at 350°F for 30 minutes until hot and bubbly throughout.
- To add color to the top, place under the broiler for 2 - 3 minutes, watching carefully so not to burn. When covered with foil, holds its temperature for a good 30 minutes.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Lightly oil butternut squash and season with salt and pepper. Set butternut squash, cut-side down, on the lined baking sheet.
- Roast in the preheated oven until butternut squash can easily be pierced with a fork, 45 to 60 minutes.
- Meanwhile, place bacon in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain bacon slices on paper towels and crumble when cool enough to handle.
- At the same time, bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook elbow macaroni in the boiling water, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 8 minutes.
- Remove 2 cups hot pasta water to a liquid measure; add bouillon cube and stir to dissolve. Drain pasta.
- Pour 1 cup broth from the liquid measure into a large pot. Scoop roasted butternut squash flesh into the pot and blend with an immersion blender, adding more broth as needed to achieve a light creamy texture.
- Place the pot over medium heat and mix in Cheddar cheese. Cook until cheese is melted and sauce is thick. Add drained pasta and mix to combine. Adjust seasoning to your liking.
- Serve topped with crumbled bacon.

- Take your spiralized butternut squash noodles and cut with a scissor, if they are not in half-moon shape. Lay the noodles on a baking tray coated in cooking spray. Bake in the oven for 5-7 minutes or until easily pierced with a fork. Set aside.
- In a large saucepan, add in the vegan butter and let melt. Once melted, add in the coconut flour and whisk together until flour absorbs butter and becomes thick. Then, add in the almond milk and whisk together constantly until mixture thickens.
- Once the mixture thickens, add in the baked butternut squash noodles and stir to combine. Once combined, add in the cheese and stir again to combine. If it is too thick, add in more almond milk.
