Parmesan & Sage Baked Butternut Squash Noodles

A baked butternut squash dish that is a great low carb comfort dish.  The butternut is made into noodles, then baked.

This was the first time that I had used butternut squash in my spiralizer and I was pleasantly surprised as it yielded firm noodles and was an easy vegetable to use.   This is what I call an easy, lazy comfort dish as you just mix all the ingredients, throw it in the oven and eat.   No fancy preparation apart from working the spiralizer.

I would recommend that you don't stir the noodles too much as I did as it will break them up.   I have a natural tendency to fiddle and stir and should have left this dish alone without the constant touching.  However, the end result was a creamy, sweet dish with a great balance between the sage and thyme. There's something about those two herbs that just go perfectly with butternut squash.

If you don't have a spiralizer then you could cut the butternut squash into small chunks, roast them and then add the sauce.
