    HOW TO MAKE BUTTERNUT SQUASH NOODLES

    Besides the butternut squash, you'll need a spiralizer to create these colorful and delicious noodles. Spiralizers are not expensive these days, and I think they are worth every penny. So, if you don’t own a spiralizer, you can buy one online. I recommend (and use) this Ultimate 7-Blade Vegetable Spiralizer. If you'd like to learn more about spiralizing, check out this article: 7 Best Vegetables to Spiralize. And check out the video below, if you'd like to see how to spiralize butternut squash.

    SAUSAGE

    I use Mild Italian Sausage in this recipe, but you can use a spicy version. It doesn't really matter if you purchase links or patties because you'll be breaking them up into bite-sized pieces. You may use other kinds of meat here, but it'll change the flavor, of course. I think chicken would work nicely as well.

      This was so good! Perfect comfort food for a cold night. I will say I doubled the recipe for three people - two were grown men and it was gone! It was supposed to serve 8, so take the serving size with a pinch of salt. Only changes I made was I added fresh sage because I had it, and used smoked paprika instead of regular paprika because that’s what I grabbed from the spice shelf. To save time I also used green giant butternut squash noodles. Worked great. I will definitely make this again.

      Hi this recipe sounds and looks amazing, and I really want to try it. I live in the UK and can someone please advise me what half and half is.

        Hi Tracey! Half and Half, also known as half cream in the United Kingdom, is a blend of equal parts whole milk and light cream. If you can't find it you can use regular cream or even full-fat coconut milk here. Happy cooking!

        Half and half is 50-50 mix of heavy cream and milk
