Description

A quick weeknight recipe for pumpkin pasta. Parmesan, sage and nutmeg finish off the fall flavors of this simple vegetarian pasta.

Note: To make this recipe vegan, simple omit the Parmesan cheese.

Ingredients

  • 6 ounces, weight Whole Wheat Pasta
  • ½ cups Pasta Cooking Water
  • 2 teaspoons Olive Oil
  • 2 whole Shallots, Diced
  • 1 clove Garlic, Minced
  • 1 Tablespoon Fresh Sage, Plus More For Garnish
  • 1 can (15 Oz. Size) Pumpkin Puree
  • ¼ cups Parmesan Cheese, Plus More For Garnish

Cook the pasta according to package directions. When the pasta is al dente, reserve some of the cooking water before draining.

While the pasta cooks, heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the shallots, garlic, sage and a pinch of salt and stir well. Cook for about 10 minutes, until the shallots are tender and fragrant. Add the pumpkin, Parmesan cheese and nutmeg and stir to combine.

OMG This was delicious!!! I didn’t have any sage or shallots, so I used rosemary and onions instead. I also added leftover Costco rotisserie chicken. This was so quick. The part that took the longest was making the pasta! Thanks for such an amazing, easy, and incredibly delicious recipe!
