3. Creamy Butternut Squash Alfredo

Pumpkin isn’t the only gourd in town during the Autumn season- there are plenty of other squashes (hope that’s a word!) that are totally delicious. Creamy and nutty butternut squash is one of my favorites and this alfredo looks SO good. It’s a nice change to traditional spaghetti, and yes, that IS bacon on top. Could this meal get any better?
