    I love butternut squash (and I had no trouble making this, but it really didn't have much flavor at all. It was healthy and not bad, but definitely far more bland than any other recipes of Giada's I've made. I won't be making it again (and now I need to decide how to spice up the mass quantity of leftovers.

    I have made this recipe repeatedly since I first found it 04/09. I use 1/2 cup light sour cream and 1/4 cup 2% milk instead of the whole milk and add the parmesan in while it's in the blender. My kids love it and always have seconds. As most butternut squash that I buy weigh about 2 lbs., I always make double and freeze 1/2 the sauce. Thaw, heat and toss with freshly cooked pasta - has worked every time!!!

    After reading some of the reviews I was a bit skeptical, but this was an amazing dish, and rather easy to make - most importantly healthy! Fresh ingredients are key - I will make this again and again!

    I made this recipe and omitted the prawns in order to save money, and it was delicious! A great idea for an inexpensive meatless meal.

    I love this recipe. I did make some adjustments. I added 2 cloves of garlic. I reduced the broth down to 1/2 cup and added 1/2 cup of white wine. My little kids even loved it.

    OMG! To all who said this recipe came out bland, well you kinda have to be a decent cook to make it work. And a little love touch helps. Good taste also helps. Thank you Giada!

    Easy enough to make nice dinner for 30 minutes! I used milk instead stock, so sauce turned out really creamy and delicious!

    I loved it. I didn't have vegetable broth so I used chicken broth and a splash of white wine. I also added a little nutmeg. It was so rich and creamy my guests all wanted the recipe and we will all be cooking this again and again.

    I thought it was great I used more squash than required so I made it into a soup.The only thing I think i might do differently next time is used heavy cream instead of milk. Great recipe Giada
