Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 15

¼ cup extra-virgin olive oil
½ cup yellow onion (minced)
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
½ teaspoon kosher salt
¼ teaspoon black pepper
2 tablespoons tomato paste
8 ounces bucatini (or spaghetti)
2 cups water
2 cup vegetable broth (or vegetable stock)
1 cup pumpkin puree
½ cup heavy cream
¼ cup grated parmesan cheese (plus more for garnish)
⅛ teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 teaspoon chopped sage (for garnish)

Steps:

  • Heat a large high-sided skillet or dutch oven over medium heat. Add olive oil, once hot, add the onion. Cook until fragrant and begins to turn translucent, about 1 minute.
  • Add the garlic, Italian seasonings, salt, and pepper. Stir and cook for 30-seconds. Add tomato paste and saute for 1 minute.
  • Add the pasta, water, and vegetable stock. Bring the liquid to a boil over high heat. Cook and frequently stir until the pasta is tender and water has mostly evaporated, keeping a small amount in the pan to create a light sauce, about 12 to 14 minutes. Add more water if needed, ½ cup at a time for a softer pasta. Turn the heat down to low.
  • Stir in the pumpkin puree, heavy cream, parmesan cheese, and nutmeg. Cook for 3 minutes, stirring occasionally. If needed, add more vegetable broth to loosen the sauce consistency.
  • Taste and season with more salt and pepper as desired.
  • Garnish with chopped sage, parmesan cheese, and black pepper. Divide among plates and serve warm.

ONE POT CREAMY PUMPKIN PASTA

Luxuriously creamy pumpkin pasta in 20 minutes! It's possible with this super-simple vegetarian one-pot pasta recipe. My favorite easy fall dinner.

Provided by Kare for Kitchen Treaty

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 13

8 ounces linguine pasta
4 cups low-sodium vegetable broth*
1 cup pumpkin puree
1/2 cup white wine (I recommend Chardonnay or another wine that's on the dry side)
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 medium onion (chopped small) (about 1 cup)
3-4 large cloves garlic (peeled & minced) (about 2 tablespoons)
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/8 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (or more or less to taste)
1 teaspoon kosher salt plus more to taste
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper plus more to taste
1 4-ounce log fresh goat cheese (chevre)** or, for a vegan version, 4 ounces of vegan cream cheese or vegan herbed cream cheese
1 small bunch parsley (chopped)

Steps:

  • Add all ingredients except the goat cheese and parsley (and any additional salt and pepper) to a large, heavy pot - I use a 7-quart dutch oven.
  • Place the pot over high heat and bring to a rolling boil. As soon as it comes to the rolling boil, set the timer for 9 minutes. Stir and toss with tongs as it cooks, stirring frequently for the first few minutes and then constantly as it thickens and begins to stick to the bottom of the pot. When the 9 minutes is up, the pasta should be tender and the sauce will have thickened slightly. If the pasta is not yet cooked, continue for one more minute. Remove from heat.
  • Crumble goat cheese into the pasta. Stir gently until melted and combined. Let sit for 5 minutes (at this point, the pasta will seem somewhat soupy, but it will thicken as it sits).
  • Stir and taste. Add additional salt and pepper if desired.
  • Divide between bowls and sprinkle parsley over the tops.

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use fresh pumpkin purée. You can make your own by roasting a pumpkin and then puréeing it in a food processor or blender, or you can buy it canned.
  • If you don't have heavy cream, you can substitute milk or half and half. However, the sauce will be thinner.
  • To make the pasta more flavorful, add a pinch of nutmeg or cinnamon.
  • If you want a vegetarian version of this dish, omit the bacon.
  • Serve the pasta with a side of crusty bread or a green salad.

This one-pot creamy pumpkin pasta is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. It is packed with flavor and is sure to please everyone at the table. So next time you are looking for a quick and easy pasta dish, give this recipe a try!
