Ingredients:

Serving

2 1/2 cups (1/2-inch) cubed peeled butternut squash
cooking spray
3/4 tsp salt, divided
1/2 cup fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves
2 1/2 tbsp chopped walnuts
2 tbsp fresh sage leaves
2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
2 tbsp extravirgin olive oil
1 garlic clove
1/3 cup fat-free , less-sodium chicken broth
3 cups cooked cavatappi pasta (about 6 oz uncooked )
4 cups torn arugula
1/4 cup thinly sliced shallots
1/2 tsp freshly ground black pepper

Directions:

Preheat oven to 450°.
Arrange squash in a single layer on a jelly-roll pan coated with cooking spray. Lightly coat squash with cooking spray; sprinkle evenly with 1/4 teaspoon salt. Bake at 450° for 20 minutes or until squash is tender, stirring after 10 minutes. Cool squash slightly.
Combine 1/4 teaspoon salt, parsley, and next 5 ingredients (through garlic) in a food processor; process until finely chopped, scraping sides. With processor on, slowly pour broth through food chute, processing until well blended.
Combine the remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt, squash, pasta, and pesto in a large bowl, and toss well to coat. Add arugula, shallots, and pepper; toss to combine. Serve immediately.
