In reply to Candy. Hi Candy, you could use blanched slivered almonds or half the amount of sunflower seeds. Ricotta cheese would work well too.

What can you use instead of cashews to give it the luscious creaminess aside from dairy products? Or maybe a lactose dairy product?

I dont even like butternut squash, i just had one lying around, but why is this recipe so good I used the other half of the butternut squash cooked with garlic greens in the pasta, and added some chicken too...but honestly the sauce is shockingly good. I didnt even have sage and accidentally burnt the thyme so it didnt really like taste anything, but it was still SO good. I did add two soffritto cubes that I had meal prepped from the freezer bc i didnt have any shallots/onions. Looking forward to eating this again. Butternut squash - sorry for underestimating u

In reply to Cece. Hi Cece, I think fresh is best for this one, you can buy pre-cubed squash to make things easier.

In reply to Althea Godfrey. Hi Althea, I'm so glad you loved it! I think you could freeze this sauce. It might separate a little when it thaws, but if you reheat it gently and stir often, it should come back together.
