Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 tbsp Olive Oil
  • 1 medium Sweet Onion (finely diced)
  • 1/4 tsp Red Pepper Flakes
  • 5 cloves Garlic (roughly chopped)
  • 6 cups Butternut Squash (about 2lbs)
  • 2 tsp Italian Seasoning

  • 1/2 lb Mafalda Pasta (or dried lasagna noodles) (broken up)
  • 2 cups Fresh Kale
  • 1/2 cup Heavy Cream
  • 1/4 cup Brown Sugar
