Recipe by Aims To Confection {inspired by Julia’s Album}
Ingredients:
Caramelized onions – 1 1/2 yellow or sweet onions, sliced – 1 1/2 TBSP Evoo – pinch of salt – 1/2 TBSP balsamic glaze or vinegar
Creamy parmigiana sauce: 1 cup heavy cream or half & half – 3/4 cup shredded parmigiana cheese – a pinch of salt
Farfalle pasta: 6 to 8oz cooked according to package directions. I opt not to add the full box of pasta for this dish.
Baby spinach: 6 oz – one butternut squash, cubed & roasted and 1 TSBP olive oil *I slice and sauté the onions while the butternut squash is roasting*
Instructions: Preheat your oven 400 F. Place cubed squash on a baking sheet with parchment paper. Spread around on the pan. Drizzle with olive oil and a touch of brown sugar {optional}. Cook for 45 minutes – check the squash around 30 minutes. Test tenderness with a fork. They should not be hard. Heat 1 TBSP olive oil on medium heat in a large skillet. Add sliced onions, stir and cook until brown. Adjust heat to avoid burning. Cook for 15-20 minutes. Add a dash of salt & stir. Remove from heat. Add sautéed onions to a bowl, drizzle with balsamic glaze. Using the same pan, add 1 TBSP evoo on low-medium heat, add the baby spinach. Cook and stir until the spinach wilts. Add the heavy cream and parmigiana to the same pan. Stir, bring to a low simmer and creamy. If the sauce is too thin, add more parmigiana. On low heat, Add the sautéed onions. Stir. Add the cooked & drained pasta. Combine until covered in cream sauce. Reheat & simmer on low-medium heat. Enjoy.
