Fall Harvest Pasta

Ingredients

  • 1/4C  The Olive Grove’s Mushroom Sage Olive Oil, divided
  • 4oz  Pancetta, diced (you can find diced pancetta in most grocery stores)
  • 8oz  Butternut squash, cubed into 1/2-inch pieces (look for the squash already cubed in the produce section)
  • 2C  Kale, chopped
  • 1/2 lb  The Olive Grove’s Orecchiette pasta
  • Freshly grated Parmesan cheese
  • Salt and Pepper to taste

Directions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.  Toss the Pancetta and butternut squash with 1 tablespoon olive oil in a medium-sized bowl and evenly spread onto a baking sheet.  Roast for 30 minutes.  Pull the baking sheet out and stir in the kale, and place back in the oven for another 10 minutes.

Boil the orecchiette in a large pot of salted water until al dente, about 9 minutes.  Drain and add back to pot.  Pour the sheet pan ingredients and remaining olive oil into the pot and blend together.  Add in cheese, salt and pepper, stir and enjoy!
