Roasted Butternut Squash Noodles with Orange-Cranberry Sauce & Honey Roasted Pecans

Prep Time 15 minutes
Cook Time 25 minutes
Total Time 40 minutes
Servings 5

Ingredients

  • For the glaze:
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1/4 cranberry juice
  • 1 cup cranberries
  • 1 tsp orange zest
  • 1/4 cup freshly squeezed orange juice
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • For the rest:
  • 1 butternut squash peeled, Blade C
  • olive oil cooking spray
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 1/2 cup pecans
  • honey to drizzle

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
  • Place a medium saucepan over high heat and place in all of the ingredients for the orange-cranberry glaze. Cover and bring to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and simmer for about 15 minutes or until sauce thickens and liquids reduce. When done, turn off the heat, pour into a bowl and let thicken as it cools.
  • While the glaze is cooking, get ready to bake your noodles. Place them in a baking tray coated with cooking spray. Season generously with salt and pepper. Set aside.
  • Once the glaze is done and you've turned off the heat and set it aside in a bowl, bake the noodles for 5-7 minutes or until noodles wilt and become soft. Remove from the oven and pour into a serving bowl.
  • Then, in one of the baking trays used, add in the pecans. Drizzle with honey and place in the oven for 3 minutes.
  • While the pecans are roasting, stir your glaze and pour it on top of your noodles, carefully. Once the pecans are done, place them on top of the glazed noodles.
  • Before serving, toss the noodles, glaze and pecans so that the glaze coats all of the noodles.
