Sage and Pumpkin add the flavors of fall to this hearty pasta dish, which gets a kick from a dash of hot pepper sauce. I personally add browned sweet sausage to this.

This is my new favorite pasta recipe! It's so easy to make, and it's always a hit with my family and friends. The pumpkin puree adds a delicious sweetness to the sauce, and the sausage gives it a nice savory flavor. I highly recommend this recipe!

Not bad, but not great. The pumpkin flavor was a bit too strong for my liking, and the sauce was a little too thick. Overall, it was an okay dish, but I probably won't make it again.

This pasta was a hit with my family! The pumpkin flavor was subtle and not overpowering, and the sausage added a nice savory touch. The sauce was creamy and flavorful, and the pasta was cooked perfectly. We will definitely be making this again!
