meh. The ricotta and butternut squash with the pasta produces a dead, flat dish. On the butternut side (roasted), I added hazelnuts, for the ricotta (whole milk), I added bacon. The additions helped but I am convinced that butternut squash and ricotta cannot hold a dish together. Ricotta and spinach work with pasta but you need 3 times more spinach than ricotta. Ricotta and butternut squash with pasta, no.
