Use pre-cut squash – This will save you the hassle of cutting off the hard outside peel. You can usually find it in the produce section.

Try sweet and spicy sausage. Using two types of sausage adds a lot more flavor to the pasta. A little spice mixed with sweetness makes a nicely balanced pasta bowl!

Change the milk – Whole milk, heavy cream, almond milk or even oat milk all work in this recipe. A higher fat milk will make a creamier pasta.
