  Add the squash mixture and continue cooking, stirring
  constantly until the sauce has thickened. Spoon the
  sauce over the cooked pasta.
  
   Variation: Substitute 1 1/2 cups broccoli florets for
  the celery and 1 cups quartered mushrooms for the
  carrots. Or you may wish to use these vegetables in
  addition to the celery and carrots.
