Whether you have squash in your garden, or you pick some up on sale at the grocery store, October is the month of the squash 😉 Squash is everywhere and is on sale for GREAT prices this week! All of your winter squash will be on sale these next couple of weeks–butternut, acorn, spaghetti, etc. If you are unsure about your love of squash, you need to try the recipes I will be posting the next couple of days. Whether you use the squash in a dessert, as a side dish or as your main dish, squash is completely versatile, good for you and one of my favorite vegetables!! If I had to choose which squash I’m in love with the most, I think it would have to be the butternut. I love that there are minimal seeds and it’s easy to peel and cube. This makes it perfect for roasting or baking.
This recipe for Creamy Butternut Alfredo is SO good! I was laughing when my kids were gobbling it up as if it was your traditional alfredo sauce. Had I not have added extra roasted butternut pieces in at the end, they would have never known it was in this dish. This is a great way to sneak in some nutrients into your kids’ dinner 😉 The butternut ads a slightly sweet flavor and helps this sauce become nice and creamy and smooth. The flavor of the sage and parmesan go perfectly with the squash and all atop a bed of pasta was lovely. If you have squash around your kitchen, this is a dish you won’t want to skip over! Hope you enjoy 😉
