There are days I forget that simple can be better.
So many times I feel like I load pasta down with heavy sauces or too many ingredients and I loose site of the simplicity of pasta.
This dish is made great by simple roasting, toasting, and melting. I think what also makes this great is the flavor of organic butter. If you haven’t tried organic butter- splurge, the taste is amazing.
I think I have overloaded my site with butternut but that’s not a bad thing!
