Butternut Squash Pasta Carbonara

I have this problem where I want to eat bacon with everything, and so I compromise by adding it with something healthy like so. This Butternut Squash Pasta Carbonara is the perfect fall meal and it will likely become a staple meal for you this time of year. It’s deliciously creamy, it’s rich and hearty, it has the perfect balance and blend of flavors (bacon butternut squash sage were made for each other, think lightly sweet, perfectly salty and kissed with herbs) and it’s a meal your whole family will enjoy, even my kids gave this a big thumbs up!

The only tedious thing about this recipe to me is peeling, seeding and chopping up the squash…it takes foreeeeever. Okay like 10 minutes but 10 minutes can be precious these days so maybe I’ll have to try it out with the pre-cut stuff from the store to make it a quicker meal and see how it goes. Really though this pasta is so good it is most definitely worth the chopping required so don’t hesitate to try it! It is absolutely delicious and it’s the perfect comforting fall dish! And if you want to add extra bacon I won’t judge, I may or may not have added a little extra myself :). Read More »
