Pappardelle with Squash, Mushrooms, and Spinach

This vibrant pappardelle with squash, mushrooms, and spinach is a celebration of earthy, autumnal flavours. The sweetness of the roasted butternut squash pairs beautifully with the umami-rich shiitake mushrooms, while fresh sage adds a fragrant, savoury depth. Using wide ribbons of pasta ensures every mouthful is coated in the luxurious butter and Parmesan sauce, making this a truly satisfying vegetarian main course that feels sophisticated enough for entertaining yet simple enough for a Tuesday night.

As a nutritious vegetarian dish, this recipe is packed with vitamins from the fresh spinach and squash. The secret to the silky texture lies in the reserved pasta cooking water, which helps the cheese and melted butter emulsify into a light, glossy coating. Serve this comforting homemade pasta in warmed bowls with an extra grating of Parmesan and perhaps a crisp green salad on the side for a balanced, seasonal meal.
