Time 1h20m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 tablespoons olive oil
2/3 cup yellow onion, chopped
2 lbs butternut squash, cut into 1-inch pieces
1 (13 1/2 ounce) can coconut milk
salt & pepper
1 tablespoon ground sage
3/4 cup whole wheat elbow macaroni
1/2 cup walnuts, chopped
1/2 cup breadcrumbs

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350. Lightly oil 9" x 13" baking dish.
  • Heat oil in medium pot/large skillet over medium heat. Add onions and cook until softened, 5-7 minutes.
  • Add squash, coconut milk, salt & pepper and bring to a boil. Cover and reduce heat to medium low for 20 minutes. In separate pot, cook macaroni al dente (~5 minutes).
  • Add in sage to butternut squash mixture and cook 1 more minute. Mash some, but not all, of the squash pieces.
  • Combine squash mixture, macaroni, and walnuts.
  • Transfer to greased baking dish and top with bread crumbs.
  • Bake until golden brown, about 30 minutes.

Tips:

  • For a creamy casserole, use full-fat coconut milk and cashew cream. If you prefer a lighter version, use low-fat coconut milk and omit the cashew cream.
  • To add a smoky flavor, roast the butternut squash before adding it to the casserole.
  • If you don't have a food processor, you can grate the butternut squash and onion by hand. Just be sure to grate them finely so that they blend well with the other ingredients.
  • Feel free to add other vegetables to the casserole, such as diced carrots, celery, or leeks.
  • Serve the casserole immediately, or store it in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. You can also freeze the casserole for up to 3 months. Just thaw it overnight in the refrigerator before baking.

Conclusion:

This vegan butternut squash casserole is a delicious and comforting dish that is perfect for a fall or winter meal.
