-
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Using a vegetable peeler, peel the squash and keep peeling the flesh to make the ribbons. Don’t worry if they’re not all the same size.
-
Spread the squash ribbons on a parchment lined baking sheet and season them with a pinch of salt and drizzle the olive. Roast them for about 10 minutes, they shouldn’t be too soft as they will cook a bit more in the sauce.
-
In the meantime, start cooking your pasta according to the box directions.
-
Preheat a cast iron or a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the butter.
-
Add the mushroom, kale and garlic when the butter melts and season with a pinch of salt and oregano. Sauté the mixture for 2 minutes until the veggies soften up a little.
-
At that point add in the cream and lower the heat to medium-low. Season the cream mixture with salt and pepper.
-
Once the pasta is done, drain and reserve about 1/2 cup of pasta water on the side to thin out the sauce to your desired consistency.
-
Check on the squash and when it’s ready, add it to the cream mixture.
-
Toss the pasta into the creamy veggie mixture and thin out the sauce with some of the reserved pasta water to the thickness you like.
-
Add the parmesan cheese and the red pepper flakes pinch (if you’re using it). Give the pasta a final toss and serve. Enjoy!
