Winter Squash Gnocchi

squash gnocchi with sage butter and pine nuteI love making fresh pasta, especially ravioli stuffed with winter squash.  But it is a time consuming process that can take up the better part of a day.  However making gnocchi is much quicker. So when I saw a recipe at treehugger.com for pumpkin gnocchi, I gave it a try.  I changed their recipe to be more like how how I usually make ravioli.
Winter Squash Gnocchi Ingredients:
1 small to medium butternut or other winter squash
1 egg
salt, pepper and nutmeg to taste
butter
sage
pine nuts, toasted and chopped

Directions:
Follow the instructions at treehugger to make the gnocchi.

For the sauce I warmed fresh sage leaves in butter, until the butter was flavored. I tossed the cooked gnocchi in the butter and garnished with pine nuts.
