I whipped this up last night because I needed something quick and easy. The sauce gets super creamy but make sure you get that cream cheese nice and soft before you add it... (thanks Keni :) Sneak in that finely diced squash for those picky kids or leave it in bigger chunks for the lovers! Read more Serve with a nice crusty bread! See less
