Squash Tagliatelle with Blackberry Thyme Sauce (grain-free & vegan)

September 2, 2016 By Hana 8 Comments

Squash Tagliatelle with Blackberry Thyme Sauce (grain-free & vegan)

I have another blackberry recipe for you today and this time it’s a savoury one. Originally I wanted to make butternut squash spaghetti with blackberry sauce, but to my frustration my handheld spiralizer wouldn’t spiralize my squash. Determined to make this recipe work I’ve used julienne peeler instead and I’ve changed the name to squash tagliatelle. I suppose it makes it sound even more interesting – Squash Tagliatelle with Blackberry Thyme Sauce. I like the sound of it and I very much enjoyed eating it.

This recipe is one of those recipes that won’t be to everyone’s taste, but plant-based recipes often aren’t. There is so much narrow mindedness out there about food and I’m so thankful to the plant-based movement and slow changes in the world. Eating predominantly plant-based diet is still pretty new to me too and I want to make it simple, interesting and different as much as I can. There are so many combinations to try and I never fell more excited and creative in the kitchen.

This meal couldn’t be more simpler, you can spiralize your squash or peel it into long strips like me. I’ve used about half of a small butternut squash to make this meal, which is enough for two servings. I found the raw squash a bit hard and so I’ve cooked it in the sauce for about 5 minutes until I was happy with the texture. I’ve served the tagliatelle with some fresh rocket leaves, toasted flaked almonds and extra fresh blackberries. It’s a lovely colourful meal and I hope you like it:) x

    This looks lovely Hana! What beautiful colours :) I picked some blackberries yesterday and will be posting a recipe soon! Is there a more lovely thing to do than forage for blackberries? :) x

    Hi H, at the time this recipe came in I was also having problems spiralizing butternut squash with a new spiralizer I’d just bought! The julienne peeler is a great idea which I’ll try in case of any problems next time. I ended up grating the squash I failed to spiralize! Your photos are stunning and this sounds like such a great combination of flavours, and a perfect seasonal recipe too! T xxx

Happy New Year beautiful! ✨ I’m feeling that Happy New Year beautiful! ✨

I’m feeling that this is the year we all need to ease into. Use this sacred pause we’re in until the 5th of January to really go within and listen deeply to what are you being called to birth this year. Forget creating goals from your ego. What are those whispers of your soul calling you to? Is it time to take the lead in your life? ✨

If this year is a continuation of 2020 we will need more conscious embodied leaders taking charge to create the change our planet needs. It’s us who create the future. ✨

Now that many of us are awake we need conscious women and men to walk together hand in hand! We’ve got this! 

✨🕊✨

Sending so much Love Hana xx

What dessert are you making this year? To be honest I’ve got my gingerbread cookies stored in fridge, the leftover chocolate cranberry orange cake in freezer so I’m quite sorted!
