Ingredients

  • 1 (12 ounce) package dry fettuccine pasta

  • 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened

  • 1 cup mashed cooked butternut squash

  • ½ cup salted butter, cubed

  • ½ cup milk

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • ⅛ teaspoon ground nutmeg

  • ⅔ cup grated Parmesan cheese

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

  • 1 medium zucchini, quartered and sliced

  • 1 medium Squash, summer, yellow, raw

  • 6 medium fresh mushrooms, quartered

  • salt and ground black pepper to taste

Directions

  1. Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil. Cook fettuccine at a boil until tender yet firm to the bite, about 8 minutes.

  2. While pasta cooks, combine cream cheese, butternut squash, butter, milk, garlic, and nutmeg in a large saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring often, until all ingredients are blended. Stir in Parmesan cheese and mix until smooth.

  3. Heat oil in a large saute pan over medium-high heat. Saute zucchini, yellow squash, and mushrooms until tender, 7 to 10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.

  4. Drain pasta, toss with vegetables on a large serving platter, and pour Alfredo sauce over top.
