Prep Time10 minutes
Cook Time15 minutes
Total Time25 minutes
Course: Vegetarian Dinner
Cuisine: American
Servings: 4

Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons Carepelli EVOO
  • 1 small onion chopped
  • 2 cloves of garlic minced
  • 6 cups spiralized Butternut Squash Noodles from two 10-12 inch butternut squashes
  • Salt*
  • ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
  • ½ cup walnuts roughly chopped
  • ½ cup shredded parmesan cheese
  • 2 tablespoons Italian parsley chopped (optional)

Instructions

  • Heat Carepelli EVOO in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add in the onion and cook until translucent, 3-4 minutes.
  • Stir in the garlic and cook, stirring constantly, for 30 seconds.
  • Add in the butternut squash noodles and cook for 7-10 minutes (timing depends on the thickness of your noodles). I recommend using kitchen tongs to gently turn them as they cook. You will know that they are cooked when they soften and get smaller in volume.
  • Add in the walnuts and give it a large gentle stir.
  • To Serve: Divide the cooked noodles into bowls and sprinkle each bowl with parmesan cheese and chopped fresh parsley, if preferred.

Notes

*I would recommend starting with a small amount of salt and adding more after adding the parmesan only if you think you need it.
