Steps:
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil, and add the chopped butternut squash. Cook for about 8 minutes.
- In the meantime, add 2 tablespoons of extra-virgin olive oil to a pan. Once the oil is hot, add about 8 sage leaves. Let them crisp for about 30 seconds on each side and then remove them from the heat and place them on the side for the final topping.
- In the same pot, add the chopped onion and 4-6 sage leaves, add a quarter cup of water and let the onion soften.
- Once the butternut squash is cooked, remove it from the water using a slotted spoon or mesh skimmer. Add the squash straight into the pan with the onions.
- In the same boiling water you used for the butternut squash, cook the pasta until al dente according to the package directions, stirring from time to time. Reserve 1 cup of the pasta cooking water before draining.
- Place the cooked butternut squash, onions, and sage into the blender or food processor. Add the oat milk a bit at a time, and season with salt and pepper. Blend until smooth.
- Drain the pasta, then add back to the pan, add the butternut squash sauce, and if necessary, add a bit of the boiling water you saved to thin the sauce.
- Serve the pasta on individual plates, with freshly grated pepper, crumbled fried sage leaves, and your favorite topping (here, I used a combination of shaved walnuts and nutritional yeast - but you can use parmesan or pecorino if you are not vegan).

BUTTERNUT SQUASH WITH PASTA AND SAGE RECIPE
Steps:
- Gather the ingredients.
- Position a rack in the center of the oven and heat to 375 F. Peel and halve the squash, scoop out the seeds, and cut into 1/2- to 1-inch cubes.
- Combine the squash, onion, 1 teaspoon salt, pepper, and oil on a large rimmed sheet pan. Toss to coat. Spread evenly on the pan. Roast until tender and brown in places, turning about halfway through roasting time, 40 to 45 minutes total.
- Meanwhile, bring a large pot of well-salted water to a boil. Cook the pasta according to package directions to al dente. Drain and set aside.
- In a large skillet over medium-low heat, melt the butter. Add the sage leaves and cook until the butter begins to brown and the leaves crisp. Remove the leaves with a slotted spoon to a paper-towel-lined-plate. Be careful not to burn the butter.
- Add the garlic to the skillet and continue cooking until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Remove from the heat.
- Add the pasta and toss to coat. Crumble the sage leaves over the mixture. Add the butternut squash and onions. Return to medium-low heat and continue cooking, stirring frequently, until pasta and squash are warmed through.
- Toss with 1/2 cup of shredded Parmesan cheese, adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper if needed. Serve with more Parmesan, if desired.

PASTA WITH SAUSAGE, SQUASH AND SAGE BROWN BUTTER
Whether you're after a night in with your special someone or your sweatpants, this is your pasta: a cozy combination of spicy sausage and squash that's glossed with nutty, sage-spiked butter and Parmesan. It's inspired by the cavatelli with sausage and browned sage butter at Frankies 457 Spuntino in Brooklyn - the most ordered dish on dates, according to the owners, but appealing no matter the occasion, according to us. The key to making the dish sing is the unsexy color (brown). You'll want to get a hard sear on the sausage and the squash, and let the butter bubble until brown and toasty. If you're looking for a vegetarian option, omit the sausage. The meat will be gone, but the comfort won't be.

Steps:
- Bring a large pot of heavily salted water to a boil. Meanwhile, cook the sausage: In a sauté pan or skillet large enough to hold all the pasta, add the sausage and enough cold water to cover. Set over medium-high heat, then remove from the heat when the water hits a boil, about 8 to 10 minutes.
- Transfer the sausage to a cutting board and cut into 1/2-inch coins. Dry out the pan and return it to the stove.
- In the same pan, heat the olive oil over high until nearly smoking. Add the sausage and cook, flipping once, until dark brown on both sides, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove the sausage to a paper towel-lined plate, then reduce the heat to medium. Add the squash and a pinch of salt to the pan. Let cook, stirring briefly and scraping up any browned bits on the bottom of the pan, until browned, 5 to 7 minutes.
- While the squash is browning, add pasta to boiling water, and cook to al dente according to package directions. Reserve 1 cup of the pasta cooking water, and drain the pasta.
- When the squash is nicely browned, add the butter and sage and cook until the butter is golden, nutty smelling and foaming, just a minute or two, then immediately remove the pan from the heat and add back the sausage.
- Add the pasta to the pan and mix with the brown-butter sauce (if the pasta has cooled off quite a bit, return the pan to low heat while you combine everything). Stir in the cheese, then add pasta water as needed to smooth the sauce. Adjust with salt and pepper, and serve with extra Parmesan, if you like.

- Once the pasta is drained, add it to the skillet along with 1/2 cup of the reserved cooking water. Toss to coat, then add the squash and bacon. Crumble in half of the fried sage leaves. Toss and add more salt to taste. If the mixture looks dry, add some of the remaining cooking water. Scrape the pasta into a serving bowl and top with the remaining whole sage leaves, a sprinkle of black pepper and some Parmesan.
