Buttery Pappardelle with Pumpkin and Caramelized Onions

I’m always trying to incorporate seasonal produce into our meals. Tonight we had Buttery Pappardelle with Pumpkin and Caramelized Onions. I couldn’t find sugar pumpkin, so swapped it out with acorn squash. I got it pre-diced since I’ve had issues with acorn squash before. And I didn’t have pecorino cheese so I used what I had on hand, parmesan cheese. The ingredient list was simple: thyme, butter, salt, pepper, red onion, acorn squash, parmesan cheese, and pasta. It took longer than I had hoped for, but the results were good.

This is a vegetarian dish, but you could add grilled chicken.

It was a keeper recipe. Thumbs up from my guys.

What’s for dinner tonight? Fish!

We love fish in this house. I’m always on the lookout for new, simple, and yummy fish dishes.

I tried a new one tonight from Real Simple: cod with marinated tomatoes, polenta, and sautéed spinach. It was wonderful! Quick and easy make… under 30 minutes. Plus it is healthy coming in under 400 calories per serving and using all fresh ingredients.

It is a keeper. All of us enjoyed it.

PS – The tomatoes were from our garden and they were the best.
