Roast Butternut Squash

After a weekend of bad eating I try to redress the balance with Roast Butternut Squash Pasta. No meat, no sweets, just cubed, roasted squash seasoned with salt, pepper and some chilli flakes before being tossed with linguine, grated Parmesan and olive oil.
While this was nice to start with, the sweetness of the squash gradually became overpowering and could really do with a savoury counterpoint, like bacon, though that would be not quite as healthy. Too much squash in fact so that I do the rare thing and do not finish dinner. What to do with the other half of the squash? Hmmm...

  1. Leftover butternut works a treat in a nice frittata type of thing, especially with some chunks of bacon and some peas, yum! x
