Maple Sausage and Squash Hash, Any ideas on how to make this better?

Ingredients:

• 1 butternut squash, peeled and cubed
• 1 1/2 cups maple breakfast sausage
• 1/2 onion, chopped
• 1/4 cup red bell pepper, chopped
• 1/4 cup chopped walnuts (optional)
• 1 tablespoon fresh chopped parsley
• Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:

1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. Toss squash with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread on a baking sheet and roast for 20-25 minutes, or until tender.
3. While the squash is roasting, cook the sausage in a skillet over medium heat. Drain off any excess grease.
4. Add the onion, bell pepper, and walnuts to the skillet with the sausage. Cook for 5-7 minutes, or until the vegetables are softened.
5. Combine the roasted squash, cooked sausage mixture, and parsley in a skillet or baking dish. Season with additional salt and pepper to taste.

Tips for Making It Better:

• Use different types of squash: Try using acorn, delicata, or kabocha squash for a different flavor profile.
• Add other vegetables: Experiment with adding other vegetables such as zucchini, carrots, or mushrooms.
• Use different herbs: Instead of parsley, try using fresh thyme, basil, or rosemary for a more herbaceous flavor.
• Make it spicy: Add some diced jalapeño or cayenne pepper for a little heat.
• Add a fried egg: Top each serving with a fried or poached egg for a protein boost.
• Serve with crusty bread or tortillas: This hash pairs well with toast, biscuits, or corn tortillas for dipping.
• Use maple syrup to enhance flavor: Drizzle some maple syrup over the hash while cooking to add extra sweetness.
• Garnish with chopped walnuts: Sprinkle some chopped walnuts on top for a crunchy texture and extra nutrition.
