Overall, I thought this dish was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either.

This dish was a bit bland for my taste. I would recommend adding some more herbs or spices.

The pasta was a bit overcooked for my liking. I would recommend cooking it for a minute or two less.

This was a bit too sweet for my taste. I would recommend using less pumpkin puree or adding some acidity, like lemon juice or balsamic vinegar.

This dish is a great way to use up leftover pumpkin puree. I had some leftover from making pumpkin pie, and this was a great way to use it up.

I'm a vegetarian, so I omitted the bacon from this recipe. It was still very flavorful and delicious.

I made a few substitutions to the recipe. I used butternut squash instead of pumpkin, and I added some chopped spinach. It turned out great!

I'm not a huge fan of pumpkin, but I was pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed this dish. The pumpkin flavor was very subtle, and the bacon and sundried tomatoes really brought out the other flavors.
