Basil Butternut Squash and Sausage


It was a rare occasion to find tasty looking asparagus in the store at the end of fall. It was that perfect size between tree stalk and twig, and paired well with the autumn flavor of butternut squash. These flavors are paired with chicken sausage and our Pastamore Basil Parmesan Dipping Oil to make an excellent one pot meal.

Ingredients:
2 - chicken sausages, cooked
1 - butternut squash, large
1 lb - fresh asparagus
1 Tbsp - Pastamore Basil Parmesan Dipping Oil
As needed - cooking spray
To taste - salt and black pepper

Directions:
1. Cut butternut squash from top to bottom. Scrape out seeds and remove skin. Cut into 1/2" cubes. Rinse asparagus and cut off bottom of stalk. Chop into 1" long pieces.

2. Heat a large pot on the stove over medium heat. Lightly spray with cooking spray. Once hot, add butternut squash. Cook until squash is al dente (10-15 minutes). Add asparagus and cook for 2-4 minutes.

3. Add sausage and Pastamore Basil Parmesan Dipping Oil. Season to taste with salt and black pepper. Cook until sausage is warmed.

4. Serve and enjoy.
