Ingredients

  • 2 large onions, chopped
  • 3 tablespoons butter
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 21 uncooked jumbo pasta shells
  • 1/4 cup reduced-sodium chicken broth
  • 1 tablespoon sherry or apple cider

Method

  • In a large skillet, saute onions in butter until softened. Add garlic powder and salt. Reduce heat to medium-low; cook, stirring occasionally, until deep golden brown, 25-30 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, cook pasta shells according to package directions. Drain pasta; set aside.
  • Stir the broth, sherry, thyme and pepper into onions. Bring to a boil; cook until liquid is almost evaporated. Remove from the heat. Stir in sweet potatoes and Gorgonzola cheese.
  • Spoon into shells; place in a greased 11x7-in. baking dish.
