This recipe is similar to some that is already on Just A Pinch. This seems to be combination.I have no memory of copying the recipe. I remember eating something like this, after I was married and my mother-in-law would invite us for "Sunday Dinner". I recall one year, we had a huge amount of squash, brought tons to in-laws. We had this one Sunday, asked what was in it, and she told me what she had used. No amounts, just suit yourselves. Choose your seasonings, and a lot of the time, Mama Hagar would make her own dressing, to mix with squash and sausage. I was lazy or busy to make scratch.
