Try this super easy and nutritious creamy butternut squash pasta dish. Butternut squash and fresh sage create the perfect combination of sweet and savoury. All you need to enjoy is a glass of wine and a fork!

Add the onion to a medium sized pot along with the sage leaves and some salt + pepper to taste. Sauté on medium to low heat for 5 minutes.

Now add the butternut squash, garlic, and water to the onion and sage mixture. Stir, and simmer on low for 20-25 minutes until the squash is tender. During this time you can start cooking the pasta.

Transfer the cooked butternut squash mixture to a blender. I did two batches because I have a smaller blender. Puree until super smooth and silky.

Finally, add the butternut squash mixture to your cooked pasta, give it a stir and it's ready.
