Squash, mushroom & sage pasta!


This pasta dish is really great and you don't miss the meat at all!
It takes about half an hour to cook and this recipe serves two people and will only cost £1.25 per serving.

Ingredients

1 tbsp olive oil
Half a butternut squash - peeled and cubed
2 cloves of garlic - chopped
A few fresh sage leaves - roughly chopped
140g mushrooms - sliced
200g pasta - any shape
1 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese plus extra to serve

How to make

Heat the oil in a frying pan and fry the squash, garlic and sage for a few minutes until beginning to brown.

Splash in some water and cook on a high heat for about 15 minutes until the squash is going soft and the pan looks dry.

Add the mushrooms then fry for 5 minutes more, keep stirring it every now and again until everything starts to caramelise.

Meanwhile cook the pasta according to the instructions on the packet - drain it and keep a glass of the cooking water.

Add the pasta and the water to the squash.

Stir in most of the Parmesan cheese and serve in bowls, sprinkled with the remaining cheese.
