1½ cup grated Comté, Emmenthaler or Gruyere cheese (or a combination of all three)
2 Sweet Italian Sausages cooked & crumbled
2 teaspoons freshly chopped sage
A few fresh chives, finely chopped
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350° F/180° C. Butter a 10-inch/25-centimeter baking dish.
Crumble and cook the Sweet Italian Sausage and set aside.
In a large sauté pan, heat 2 tablespoons of the butter over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic and cook until soft and translucent, 4 minutes. Add the squash slices and nutmeg and cook until slightly tender, 3 to 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
Add Sweet Italian Sausage and sage to the butternut squash mixture and combine to your best ability.
Transfer the squash mixture to the baking dish. Pour the cream all over, sprinkle the bread crumbs and cheese on top, and dot with the remaining 1 tablespoon butter.
Bake until golden and bubbly, 25 to 30 minutes. Serve immediately, sprinkled with the chives
