Instructions
Step 1
Heat the olive oil over medium heat in a large skillet, then add the diced onion and cubed butternut squash.
Step 2
Cook the onion and squash for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, then add in the ground pork.
Step 3
Break apart the pork with a spatula and let cook for another 10-15 minutes, until the pork is fully browned and the onion is translucent. Meanwhile, fully cook your pasta according to package instructions.
Step 4
Mix in the salt, black pepper, garlic, thyme, rosemary, and 1/4 tsp of sage to the pork mixture and let the spices get aromatic, about 5 minutes.
Step 5
Incorporate the shredded kale to the mix and let it wilt. Remove the pork mixture from the skillet and set aside.
Step 6
In the same skillet over medium heat, add the vegetable broth and coconut milk and bring to a simmer. Stir in the remaining 1/4 tsp of sage and nutritional yeast, and season with additional salt and black pepper. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 5 minutes.
Step 7
Add the cooked pasta to the skillet and mix to cover all the pasta in sauce. Add the pork mixture and stir to incorporate.
Step 8
For best results, serve and enjoy immediately. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to four days or in the freezer for up to a month.
