2 cups uncooked penne pasta
4 cups hot water
2 1⁄2 cups frozen peeled and diced butternut squash

Preparation
- In Multipurpose Steamer, combine pasta and hot water. Top with tray; place squash on tray. Cover; microwave on high 12 min until pasta and squash are tender.
- Meanwhile, thinly slice chicken; season with salt and pepper. In Wok, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add chicken; stir-fry until golden-brown and cooked through, about 5 min. Remove from heat.
- Once pasta and squash are cooked, using a spoon, place squash in blender. Drain pasta; set aside. Add milk, butter and dip mix to blender; purée. Mixture will be thick.
- Add drained pasta, sauce, and cheese to wok; toss to coat. Taste and season with more salt and pepper, if desired. Spoon into bowls and add toppings, if desired.
