I used: pumpkin (cooked in the oven then blended), pecorino romano cheese and guanciale. I added some pasta water to create the sauce and the consistency was perfect! I guess you can imagine what I took inspiration from but I'm scared someone would come at me if I said it out loud lol🤣 either way it was delicious!

Looks yummy
Did you use any seasonings in the sauce or just the cheese? It looks so good! Like a jazzed up vodka sauce haha
This is in my dinner menu repertoire as soon as we hit the ER months. I brown some cubed butternut squash, from the top half, in the fat left over from frying the guanciale and use that for topping the pasta along with the guanciale. The rest of the squash gets cooked until soft with some butter and water, goes in the blender with some milk, grated pecorino Romano and s&p until I get a smooth sauce to dress the pasta with. My kids liked to call it pumpkin alfredo sauce pasta. Absolutely delicious. 👍
