5 Reviews of Penne With Sausage in Pumpkin Sauce.

Not a bad recipe and pretty easy to make. Sausage and pumpkin does make a good combo, but I didnt like the sweet taste from the brown sugar, although it was very subtle. I think a more spicy addition would have been better, like a bit of cayenne (although I really like spicy food), and leave out the brown sugar. This is one of those recipes that I would cut out of a magazine, make once, and think it was pretty good but would probably not go back to often enough to keep.

I changed this quite a bit so I probably shouldn't rate it. Used mushrooms instead of peppers because I had them, skipped the brown sugar and pie spice, and added a little bit of crushed red pepper for spiciness. It was delicious! I'd make again for sure. I used sweet italian chicken sausage.

This was delicious! I made a few changes but nothing too critical. I decreased the red pepper and onion because mine were quite large and I didn't want them to overwhelm the other flavors. I also used breakfast sausage because that's what I had on hand. Lastly, I used whole milk instead of the evaporated milk and added twice as many sage leaves since mine were store bought and I think they had lost some of their flavor. I believe the true essence of the recipe stayed true though and I will definately make it again! My co-workers thought it was wonderful too, and one of them asked for the recipe. Thank you so much for sharing it.
