Butternut Squash Casserole

When my husband needs lovin’ and I need a dose of his admiration I cook with luxury in mind. Warm, cuddly, salty goodness all folded together and baked in the oven. This is the kind of food I love to cook. But comfort food doesn’t have to be drop dead unhealthy. This casserole works in whole wheat pasta, and romano cheese is used sparingly without compromising the silky texture or crunchy top. Butternut squash is the star of this dish. Smoky bacon and earthy sage are a strong supporting cast. Indulgent and wholesome. Who says we can’t have it all?

1 medium butternut squash, peeled, seeded, and cut into 1/2-inch pieces (about 3 cups)

4 slices thick cut bacon
½ red onion, thinly sliced crosswise

How Do I Make Butternut Squash Casserole?

Here is how you make Butternut Squash Casserole:

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Bring a large pot of generously salted water to a boil. Add pasta and cook until almost al dente, about 7 minutes. Drain pasta. Set aside. Slice the bacon in to ½ inch pieces and cook in a large sauté pan over medium heat for 5 minutes. Once the bacon starts to brown, add the red onion and cook together until the bacon is crisp and onions are caramelized, about 5-7 minutes. Remove bacon and onions on to a paper towel to strain, leaving 1 teaspoon of the drippings in the pan. Increase heat to medium-high. Add squash, salt, pepper, garlic and cook for 3 minutes. Add chicken stock (enough to almost cover the squash), cover and cook for 10 minutes. When the squash is soft, mash with a fork until smooth. Remove from heat. Add sour cream and romano, stirring until cheese melts. Add pasta, sage and half of the bacon, tossing well to combine. Spoon into an 11 x 7-inch baking dish (or large gratiné pan) lightly coated with cooking spray. Sprinkle evenly remaining bacon, romano and parmesan cheese. Cover with foil and bake at 375° for 10 minutes. Uncover and baked for 10 minutes until brown on top.
