Roasted Butternut Squash & Greens

Butternut squash is slowly roasted while you caramelize onions and sauté up kale, spinach or whatever greens you have available. Toss the mess together as a topping for a pasta, creamy polenta or even as a side to a slow-melt-in-your-mouth-roasted meat. If you are feeling adventurous, roast up the squash seeds from the butternut squash and use as a topping.

Roasted Pear & Beet Salad

Roasting pears in the same pan as the red beets will bleed the color into the edges of the fruit giving them an irresistible tie-dye look. Meanwhile your beets will be roasted into sweetness.

Sage-Ricotta Pasta

Ricotta cheese is melted with a bit of milk and sage butter to be tossed on to pasta. Easier then an alfredo sauce while lending a more interesting texture and flavor.
