Put the squash into a bowl and toss with 2 tablespoons olive oil, salt, and pepper.

Place on a parchment lined baking sheet in the preheated oven for 40 minutes stirring occasionally.

The outside of the squash cubes will be crisp and the insides will be soft and sweet.

Add the artichoke hearts and cook another 5 minutes.

Meanwhile, place the roasted squash into a blender or food processor with 1 cup of the water (I used the starchy water reserved from the pasta making), adding more as needed.
