Cooking Instructions
- 1
Preheat oven to 400 °.
- 2
Toss squash with olive oil and transfer to a baking sheet. Bake for about 30 minutes, turning halfway through until squash is tender.
- 3
Cook pasta according to the package instructions. Usually about 5-7 minutes until al dente depending on the pasta you choose. Drain pasta and set aside.
- 4
In a large pot over medium high heat, melt butter. Whisk in the flour. Your flour mixture at this point will be thick, lumpy and dry.
- 5
Slowly whisk in the milk a little at a time. Add the dijon mustard and spices. Constantly stir until the flour mixture comes to a boil about 5-7 minutes and thickens.
- 6
Add in cheeses, squash and pasta. Stir just enough to coat and cheese is slightly melted.
- 7
Pour your mac & cheese into an oven proof baking dish. Top with panko breadcrumbs and bake for 20 minutes. If you want, you can just put the mac & cheese under the broiler too for about 2-3 minutes to toast the panko breadcrumbs on top and be done with it. I like to bake mine a little longer until all the cheeses are very melty through the whole dish.

Baked Mac & Cheese with Butternut Squash Baked Mac & Cheese with Butternut Squash
Super savory with just a background hint of sweet. The poblano and garlic adds amazing depth to a classic dish while the squash brings a bit of sweet and amazingly creamy texture without having to overload with cheese... unless you want too which is always good too!
