Prep Time 15 minutes

Cook Time 60 minutes

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 18

Olive oil spray
Kosher salt
1 pound cubed butternut squash
10 ounces whole wheat elbow pasta
1 ½ cups low sodium vegetable broth (divided)
½ teaspoon onion powder
½ teaspoon garlic powder
Freshly ground black pepper (to taste)
¼ cup panko breadcrumbs
2 tablespoons freshly grated Parmesan cheese
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 medium shallot (minced)
¼ cup all-purpose flour
2 cups skim milk
½ cup shredded gruyere cheese
½ cup shredded cheddar cheese
Chopped chives (optional, for garnish)
Sriracha sauce (optional, for topping)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Spray a 9” x 11” glass baking dish with oil and set aside.
  • Bring a large pot of salted water to boil. Add squash and boil until tender, 5-6 minutes.
  • When fork tender, transfer squash with a slotted spoon to a blender.
  • Add pasta to boiling water and cook according to package directions. When cooked, drain and put back into the pot.
  • Meanwhile, add ½ cup vegetable broth, onion powder, garlic powder, ½ teaspoon salt and pepper to the blender with the squash. Blend until smooth and creamy.
  • In a small bowl, combine breadcrumbs, Parmesan, ¼ teaspoon salt and pepper. Set aside.
  • Melt the butter in a medium sauce pot over medium heat. Add the shallots and sauté 2 minutes. Sprinkle the flour evenly over the shallots and cook another minute.
  • Add the remaining 1 cup broth and milk and whisk to combine. Bring sauce to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low and cook 5 minutes, whisking frequently.
  • Remove pot from heat and whisk in cheese, pureed squash, 1 teaspoon salt and pepper.
  • Add sauce to noodles, gently mix to combine, then transfer mixture to prepared baking dish.
  • Sprinkle with breadcrumb mixture and bake 25 minutes. Switch oven to high broil and broil for 2-3 minutes, or until crumbs are starting to brown.

Yield 10-12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 tbsp.

olive oil, divided, plus more for baking dish

1 lb.

cavatappi or other short pasta

1

medium-sized head cauliflower (about 2 pounds), cored and thinly sliced

4

cloves garlic, sliced

1

large yellow onion, thinly sliced

Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

4 oz.

extra-sharp white Cheddar cheese, grated (about 1 cup)

2 oz.

Parmesan cheese, grated (about 1/2 cup)

1/4 tsp.

mustard powder

Pinch cayenne pepper

1 1/2 c.

panko breadcrumbs 

1/2 c.

fresh flat-leaf parsley, chopped

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425°F. Lightly oil a 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Cook pasta according to package directions. Drain. Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add cauliflower, garlic, and onion. Season with salt. Cook, covered, stirring occasionally, until tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Add 4 cups water and simmer until vegetables are very soft, 10 to 12 minutes. Drain, reserving 2 cups cooking liquid; let cool slightly. Combine vegetables, Cheddar, Parmesan, mustard powder, and cayenne in a blender (depending on the size of your blender, you may need to do this in two batches). Purée, adding just enough reserved cooking liquid to get mixture moving, until smooth, 1 to 2 minutes. Add sauce to pasta and toss to combine. Transfer to prepared baking dish. Toss together panko, parsley, and remaining tablespoon oil in a bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle over pasta. Bake until golden brown, 14 to 16 minutes.
