Way too much sauce. Pasta was swimming in a giant bowlful of sauce, like a soup. Did not serve 6. I would double the pasta to serve six and increase the flour so the sauce might actually thicken. Needs more pumpkin and sage.

I thought it turned out a little bland but a good start to add more of my own flavors. I followed the recipe but doubled it since I was makin it for a potluck at work. I added cinnamon, onion flakes, salt, basil and some Parmesan cheese...mmmmm much better! I may use whole milk next time to see if it thickens up better. I'd make it again with my additions. I also opted to not add the nuts due to allergies

I also added 1 cup of pumpkin instead of the half a cup the recipe calls for...

I looked at the reviews before I made this dish; so I also decreased the milk and chicken broth to 1 cup each. I added a little cinnamon, seasoning salt, onion powder and crushed garlic. It was good, but I felt that it still needed something... maybe a chicken bouillon cube?

This was very good. It was a nice change of sauce for the ravioli. Did not use the nutmeg or nuts. I would definately make this again.

Easy and delicious. Does not have a strong pumpkin taste but is still really good. Serve with extra bread for dipping in the sauce.

Awesome! This is why I love Taste of Home. I saw the recipe in the magazine and wanted to try it, then took the suggestions of the previous reviewers. I only used 2 cups of liquid (1 chicken broth, 1 milk) and 2 tablespoons of flour. I made the roux the more traditional way, mixing the flour and butter in the pan and then adding the liquid slowly. I also threw in a pinch of red pepper flake. It turned out wonderfully! My husband said it could have been more pumpkin-y so I may add more next time, but otherwise this is a winner!

It was just okay. The sauce seemed to be really runny and didn't have much of a pumpkin flavor. I used the recommended 1/2 cup of pumpkin but I don't think it was enough since my sauce was very pale compared to the picture shown.

This was good but I thought it needed some tweaking. The flavors were a little bland and the sauce very runny. I didnt' care for the way the "rue" was made in this recipe, which I believe made the sauce runnier then it should have been. With some tweaking I think this could be a winner.

I made some slight adjustments by enhancing the flavor but this will be a keeper. Thanks.
