This recipe came from the Rachael Ray show. I made it last night and thought it was good, but changed a few things. I will note my changes and as she says, feel free to change it to your liking as well.

1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil

1/2 cup heavy cream
10 leaves sage, cut into thin slivers or 1 -2 teaspoon dried sage
1/4 teaspoon clove
1 (15 ounce) can pumpkin puree

Directions:
1. Heat a medium, non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
2. Add extra virgin olive oil and brown the sausage, breaking it up.
