Ingredients:

Serving

salt
1 lb elbow macaroni
1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil , 1 turn of the pan ( evoo)
2 tbsp unsalted butter
2 tbsp fresh thyme
1/2 medium onion
3 tbsp all-purpose flour
2 cups chicken broth
10 oz frozen butternut squash, thawed
1 cup heavy cream
2 cups sharp cheddar cheese, shredded (8 oz)
1/2 cup parmigiano-reggiano cheese, grated (a coupleof handfuls)
1/4 tsp fresh nutmeg, grated (eyeball it)
fresh ground pepper

Directions:

Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Salt the water, then add the pasta and cook until al dente.
Meanwhile, heat a medium heavy-bottomed pot over medium heat. Add the EVOO, 1 turn of the pan, and the butter. When the butter melts into the olive oil, add the thyme, then grate the onion directly into the pot with a handheld grater, such as a Microplane. Cook the onion for 2 minutes, then stir in the flour and cook for 2 minutes more. Whisk in the broth, then stir in the butternut squash and heat until warmed through and smooth. Stir in the cream and bring the sauce to a bubble. Stir in the cheeses and season to taste with salt, nutmeg and pepper.
Drain the cooked pasta, return it to the pot it was cooked in and add the sauce. Stir together and serve.
