I actually made this recipes exactly as printed. I enjoyed the Pecorino but it was twice the cost of fresh Parmesan which was a shocker. I believe it would be better with smaller pieces of the butternut squash. I found most had not cooked long enough. I would have liked more zucchini too. When I had leftovers for lunch the next day I sprinkled more cheese on it. It is a strong flavor so I was careful not to add too much. Also, I did not have fresh oregano but I felt the dried worked fine.

DELICIOUS! I added sun dried tomatoes and used feta instead of pecorino. I first orasted the squash with the onions. I added this to the pan sauteed zucchini. It was a light and delicious meal my whole family loved!

Maybe I didn't give this recipe a fair trial because I changed 2 ingredients - I did't have Barilla's Farfalle and I didn't have Percorino cheese. I used shell shaped noodles and Parmesan cheese and mozzarella. I followed all the rest of the recipe until it said to put the noodles in the sauce. What sauce?! There isn't a sauce that was made... So I added stewed tomatoes. What I made tasted great.

Delicious! I added some turkey sausage for more protein boost. My husband loved it and the recipe made enough for leftovers the next day.
