    Blend the steamed squash with the soy milk and the

    Heat the oil in a saucepan. Saute the celery,
   carrots, onions, and seasonings for about 5 minutes.
   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.
