Delicioso

Fall hit my kitchen last night in what turned out to be a wonderful clean out the pantry & use up stuff from the windowboxes meal.  This one is definitely going to happen again.

- 1 butternut squash, peeled & cut into ~1/3 inch chunks
- A handful of chard, cut up
- A pound of pasta
- 2 cloves garlic, diced
- A couple of hot peppers, chopped
- 2 sage leafs, bruised
- Rosemary Olive oil (plain would do, but I had a bunch of home-infused oil I needed to use)
- a handful of pine nuts
- Some oregano, chopped
- some basil, chopped
- Some Parmesan cheese, grated

Heat the oil in a heavy bottomed pan, add the garlic, stir & after 30 seconds add the squash, sage & hot pepper.  Salt & pepper as needed.  Let that go for a while, stirring occasionally until the squash starts to brown. When the squash is just about ready add the chard & let it wilt.

While the squash is cooking boil the pasta & toast the pine nuts.

If you feel like it add a little oil to the pasta after draining.

Put some pasta in a bowl.  Put some of the squash on top of that.  Put some cheese, basil & oregano on it.  Put some pine nuts on that.  Consume.
