This is one of my favorite pasta dishes! I love the combination of sausage and squash, and the sauce is always so flavorful. I usually add a little extra garlic and red pepper flakes to taste.

I'm not a fan of squash, but I thought this dish was pretty good. The sausage and sauce were flavorful, and the squash was cooked perfectly. I would definitely make this again, but I might use a different type of squash next time.

This recipe was a disaster! The sauce was too watery and the sausage was overcooked. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone.

Not bad! I thought the flavors were a bit bland, but my husband really enjoyed it. I think next time I'll add some more spices to the sauce.

This dish was easy to make and very tasty. I used sweet Italian sausage and butternut squash, and the combination was perfect. The sauce was also very flavorful. I will definitely be making this again!
