Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 large yellow onion, finely chopped
- 3 cloves garlic cloves, minced
- 2 medium carrots, peeled and diced
- 1 medium red bell pepper, diced
- 2 cups butternut squash, peeled and cubed
- 2 cups beef or vegetable broth
- 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
- 1 teaspoon fresh rosemary, finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoon ground paprika
- 1 teaspoon salt

Instructions
Heat the olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat.
Add the chopped onion and sauté until soft and translucent, about 5 minutes.
Stir in the minced garlic and cook for another 1 minute, until fragrant.
Add the diced carrots, red bell pepper, and butternut squash to the pan. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables start to soften.
Pour in the broth and add the balsamic vinegar, rosemary, oregano, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to combine.
Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, reduce the heat to low, and cover the pan. Cook for 20 minutes, or until the vegetables are very tender.
Transfer the mixture to a blender or use an immersion blender to puree the sauce until smooth and creamy. Adjust seasoning to taste, if necessary.
Serve the sauce warm over your favorite spaghetti or pasta. Garnish with fresh herbs or grated cheese, if desired.
