I wander around the grocery store looking for new food to cook. I found this butternut pappardelle squash that is amazing.
It tastes just like butternut squash but it is cut like pappardelle pasta and looks so pretty.
One box of pappardelle pasta
Ten cups of water
1/2 tablespoon salt
1/4 cup olive oil
One tablespoon butter
Three cloves diced garlic
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1/2 teaspoon salt
Boil the water in a big pot
Add the 1/2 tablespoon of salt
Add the squash
Cook for three minutes then taste it
Do not overcook
Keep it a little firm
Drain in a colander
Heat the oil and add the garlic
Cook till it is light tan.
Do not burn the garlic.
Add the red pepper flakes
Add the squash and coat it with the oil and garlic
Season with salt and pepper.
If it looks dry add a little of the cooking water.
This was so good and may I add, I ate all my vegetables.
I served this with a green salad and baked cod.
