    I thought this was good and a great way to start the cooler weather. Followed recipe but next time might try low fat milk instead of cream just to lighten it up.

    I had high hopes, but it fell short. Not bad, but not great. Cheese and fresh parsley helps.

    I've been wanting to make a fall dinner for awhile but didn't know what to make. I stumbled across this recipe, saw the great reviews, and decided to give it a shot. I'm happy I did! It was great. I followed the recipe with the only change being that I used an entire 15 oz can of pumpkin, and I added a touch of cayenne pepper for extra kick. If I make it again, I will probably scale back a bit on the cream and add a little more cinnamon and nutmeg to bring out the pumpkin flavor more. But overall it was delicious and I would definitely recommend it. I didn't make the salad.

    Only adjustment I made was to use dried sage instead of fresh as store was out. Just ok, flavor wasn't very distinctive. Not terrible but not memorable -- bland. Would not make again.

    I have made this recipe for my family as an "introduction to fall" for the past 5 years. My kids and my husband love it and can't wait for it every year. It's now become a tradition in our home. Just made it for our new neighbors who LOVED the flavors. Always a winner in my book.

    I made this recipe for the first time last night, and it was delicious!

    I have to disagree with those who said it was "bland". I took the part in the directions that said, "Season the sauce with the cinnamon and nutmeg, and salt and pepper, to taste" to mean that one doesn't necessarily need to follow the exact measurements. However, I did also make some slight changes. I used Italian turkey sausage, pureed sweet potatoes (instead of pumpkin, and I added Portobello mushrooms. While the flavor after my additions was very good, my boyfriend and I do enjoy a little extra heat in our food, so I added a little cayenne pepper seasoning, and some red pepper flakes. I served the dish topped with Romano cheese and pecans.

    This dish was very tasty! I will definitely make this again!

    I've made this recipe quite a few times. It's so tasty and a great meal, especially for the fall season. I don't recall making any big changes, except that you don't necessarily need to use the sweet Italian sausage (you can do whatever. This is a great casual meal for guests as well!

    This was REALLY good!!! I added more spices since I like a lot of flavor in my dishes. I used roasted garlic chicken sausage (sliced into thin slices, dried sage (1/2 tsp and added 1/2 tsp each of dried thyme, marjoram, and ground ginger, a tsp of paprika and a generous splash of Kikkoman low sodium soy sauce (the chicken broth was low sodium as well. I used a whole can (two cups of pumpkin instead of 1 cup. No cinnamon or nutmeg since I don't like "sweet" savory dishes. I used a splash each of half-and-half and milk instead of cream. The sauce was delicious sopped up with some French bread!
