Parmesan-Roasted Butternut Squash
Inspired by classic Italian pasta with pumpkin, this recipe pairs the earthy sweetness of butternut squash with warm nutmeg, woodsy herbs and salty-savory Parmesan. The cheese is sprinkled on midway through roasting so it browns and crisps in the oven, adding layers of rich, toasty flavor to the dish. Produced in northern Italy, Grana Padano is a grating cheese similar to Parmesan, but typically is less expensive, and a good option in this dish. This is delicious with roast chicken or pork, or toss the cooled squash with sturdy greens along with a vinaigrette to make an autumnal salad.
