Butternut Squash Pasta Sauce

This is a really simple pasta sauce that is a nice change from the traditional red sauce. It is made with just a few ingredients and is a good addition to any type of noodle. It even makes a good sauce over baked or roasted sweet potatoes!






Ingredients:
1 butternut squash, cut in half and roasted*
1 onion, cut and diced
2 cups chicken broth
1/2 T olive oil
Salt and pepper
spaghetti, linguini or any other type of noodle
optional: garnish with fresh rosemary and feta cheese

Directions:
1. Roast butternut squash (cut in half lengthwise, scoop out seeds and place on baking sheet in oven for about 30-40 minutes at 400 degrees until tender)
2. While butternut squash is roasting, saute diced onions on stove.
3. Add butternut squash, sauteed onions, chicken broth, olive oil and salt/pepper to food processor or blender. Pulse until smooth adding chicken broth to reach desired consistency (thicker/thinner depending on preference).
