Pumpkin-Summer Squash Ravioli with Brown Butter & Sage

(2)

This summer squash ravioli is like traditional ravioli with one simple swap: it uses thin slices of squash wrapped around the filling instead of pasta. These brown butter and sage–basted ravioli have a fall twist with a creamy pumpkin and goat cheese filling. The squash slices are cut with a mandoline. If you don’t have one, a vegetable peeler will work too. Make sure the slices are very thin and pliable enough to wrap around the filling.

Ingredients

  • pounds yellow summer squash, trimmed (about 2 large)

  • ½ cup canned pumpkin

  • ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese

  • 1 small clove garlic, grated

  • ½ teaspoon ground pepper, divided

  • ¼ teaspoon salt plus ⅛ teaspoon, divided

  • teaspoon grated or ground nutmeg

  • 3 ounces creamy goat cheese log, chilled, sliced into 12 pieces

  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter

  • cup chopped walnuts

  • ¼ cup loosely packed fresh sage leaves

  • 1 tablespoon cider vinegar

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F with racks in top third and lower third positions. Line 2 large rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper. Using a mandoline, slice squash into ⅛-inch-thick strips (at least 24 slices). Arrange the slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheets. Roast until tender, about 10 minutes, rotating the pans from top to bottom once. Let cool slightly, about 5 minutes.

  2. Meanwhile, combine ½ cup pumpkin, ¼ cup Parmesan, grated garlic, ¼ teaspoon each pepper and salt and ⅛ teaspoon nutmeg together in a small bowl; stir until smooth.

  3. Arrange 2 squash slices on a work surface to make an X. Spoon about 2 teaspoons pumpkin mixture in the center of the X. Place 1 cheese round on top of the pumpkin mixture. Fold the opposite ends of the slices over the cheese to create a packet. If needed, tuck any excess squash under the packet. Repeat with the remaining squash slices, pumpkin mixture and cheese rounds.

  4. Place 6 tablespoons butter and ⅓ cup walnuts in a large skillet; cook over medium heat, stirring often, until the butter is melted, about 3 minutes. Add ¼ cup sage; cook, stirring constantly, until the butter is light brown and has a nutty aroma, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from heat. Use a slotted spoon to transfer the nuts and sage to a small bowl.

  5. Place the skillet over medium-low heat; add the ravioli and cook, basting constantly with the melted butter, until warmed through, about 3 minutes. Stir in 1 tablespoon vinegar, the remaining ¼ teaspoon pepper and ⅛ teaspoon salt and the reserved nuts and sage.

Nutrition information is calculated by a registered dietitian using an ingredient database but should be considered an estimate.

* Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
