Butternut Squash Pork Pie

Always on the hunt to find uses for butternut squash.  This is a delicious addition to a pizza and there is the lovely benefit of veggie vitamins.  Did not have any Italian sausage in the freeze or frig, but I did have some fresh ground pork.  So, I cooked the raw pork crumbles, seasoned heavily with Italian seasonings, garlic and onion and topped a boboli crust with a butternut squash/marinara base as a  sauce and it worked.  It was a good supper with a fresh salad.
