Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
- Place butternut squash, cut-side down, on a baking sheet.
- Roast squash in the preheated oven until soft, 40 to 50 minutes. Remove squash flesh from skin and set aside. Reduce oven temperature to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
- Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil; cook the rotini at a boil until tender yet firm to the bite, about 8 minutes; drain.
- Melt butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Whisk flour and mustard into melted butter until smooth, about 1 minute. Gradually whisk milk into flour mixture until the mixture has the texture of heavy cream, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove from heat.
- Stir butternut squash, white Cheddar cheese, and Cheddar cheese into milk mixture until cheese is melted. Stir rotini into cheese mixture. Pour cheese mixture into a 9x13-inch baking dish. Top with bread crumbs.
- Bake in the preheated oven until bread crumbs are golden, about 10 minutes.

BUTTERNUT SQUASH MAC AND CHEESE
I know it sounds odd, but my girl LOVED butternut squash! This dog might even go for it before a steak, especially if there were also pasta and cheese involved in the deal!

Steps:
- Heat a pot of water to boil for the pasta. Salt the water then add the pasta and cook to al dente or, with a bite to it.
- While pasta cooks, heat a medium heavy bottomed pot over medium heat. Add the extra-virgin olive oil and butter. When the butter melts into the oil, add the thyme and grate the onion directly into the pot with a hand held grater or Microplane. Cook the grated onion in butter and oil 1 to 2 minutes, then add flour and cook together 1 to 2 more minutes. Whisk in stock, then combine with butternut squash until warmed through and smooth. Stir in cream or half-and-half and bring sauce to a bubble. Stir in cheeses in a figure 8 motion and season the completed sauce with salt, nutmeg and pepper. Taste to adjust seasonings.
- Drain cooked pasta well and combine with sauce. Serve alongside chicken sammies and top with thyme leaves picked from remaining sprigs (Boo would also have a little extra sprinkle of that cheese, please!)
GOURMET BUTTERNUT SQUASH MACARONI & CHEESE
My sister clipped this from the Bucks County Courier Times because this foodie loves squash and mac n cheese, so the two of them together = heaven. I'm posting the recipe here for safekeeping although I'm probably going to tweak it according to size and budget (do you know what Locatelli cheese is...? I'll probably just use cheddar. And I'm too lazy to cut a piece of squash, I'm using that frozen pureed squash!) And I'll probably skip the panko topping or at least do it un-buttered to save on calories.

Steps:
- Season the squash with salt and pepper as desired.
- Spread water and butter on a sheet pan. Place the squash, flesh side down, on the pan.
- Roast until the squash is tender (fork-able) them remove from oven and cool.
- I guess if you're using frozen squash, you can skip the next step.
- Scoop out the flesh and place in a food processor, pulse until the squash is pureed. Measure out 1/2 cup puree; save the remainder for soup or another use.
- Cook pasta al dente in salted water, and drain.
- For the sauce: Melt butter in a heavy-bottomed saucepan.
- Whisk in the flour and dry mustard.
- Add the milk slowly, whisking continuously until smooth.
- Add some nutmeg and cook on low heat until the sauce thickens and the flour taste dissipates.
- Whisk in the cheese, a little at a time, until all the cheese has been incorporated. Fold in the 1/2 cup squash puree. Season with salt and white pepper.
- Stir together the pasta and sauce in a large mixing bowl. Spread in a greased shallow baking dish.
- To make the topping, melt the butter in a pan then stir in the pank and mix until the crumbs are well coated with butter. Stir in the cheese.
- Sprinkle the topping evenly over the pasta.
- Bake at 350 until golden brown, probably 25-35 minutes.
