1 butternut squash, halved and seeds removed 
1 Tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil 
Salt and freshly ground pepper 
1 lb bowtie pasta 
2 tablespoons butter 
2 tablespoons flour 
2 cups milk 
A pinch of freshly grated nutmeg 
A pinch of cinnamon 
1 tsp dried sage
1 cup grated cheddar cheese 
1 cup grated Parmesan cheese 
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.  Drizzle squash with olive oil and place cut side down on a baking sheet.  Roast for 30-45 minutes, until tender.  Puree squash in a food processor until smooth.
Bring a large pot of water to a boil, salt the water and cook pasta until al dente.
 
While the pasta is cooking, melt butter over medium-high heat in a saucepan.  Whisk in flour and cook for about 2 minutes.  Whisk in milk and let thicken for about 3 minutes.  Stir in pureed squash, nutmeg, cinnamon, sage and season with salt and pepper.
 
In a casserole dish, combine the pasta with the sauce.  Sprinkle with cheeses and bake for 15-20 minutes to brown the cheese.
