Last week I shared with you all my homemade Butternut Squash and Sage Pasta Sauce recipe. Well as promised here is a recipe to incorporate that sauce with!

Now you can make the pasta sauce ahead of time and store it in an air tight container in the fridge 3-4 days. I prefer making it ahead of time, that way during the week I can whip up dinners like this with very little effort.

The pasta sauce recipe makes about 3 cups, however only 1 cup is needed for this Butternut Squash Spaghetti with Fried Sage and Pancetta I made today, which is approximately 2 servings.

This is such a warm, cozy, fall recipe and is perfect for those busy weeknights.
