Ingredients
1 butternut squash
1tsp rapeseed oil
1tsp dried sage
100g Asda 50% Less Fat Light Original Soft Cheese
150ml skimmed milk
250g Asda Italian Fresh Egg Macaroni
198g can salt-free sweetcorn, drained

Method
1Preheat the oven to 200C/180C Fan/Gas 6. Ask an adult to help with the peeling and chopping. Peel the squash, cut in half and spoon out the seeds. Cut the squash into small cubes, put in an ovenproof dish, toss in the oil and sage and roast for 30 mins until soft.
2Ask an adult to take the squash from the oven, put in a big bowl and mash until smooth. Use a wooden spoon to stir the soft cheese and milk into the mash until it’s creamy. Add the pasta, sweetcorn and broccoli florets to the bowl and mix until well combined.
3Put the pasta mixture in the ovenproof dish and sprinkle over the grated cheese. Bake in the oven for 20-25 mins until golden.
