Pumpkin Butternut Squash Pasta

Happy September 1st! This is the only pasta you’ll need for the next three months. It’s seriously my favorite and the crowd loves it as well. I get asked to make this in dead Summer. It’s slightly sweet and has all of the right spices to compliment the flavors of the pumpkin and butternut squash. I make my own purees, which I highly suggest, but you can buy them at the store to save time! I hope you’ll love her as much as I do.
