PUMPKIN ALFREDO SAUCE
This recipe was a nice way to use up some extra pumpkin we had available. Served it to one person who really enjoys pumpkin (myself) and one who doesn't, and both came away really liking it! Has enough flavor that the pumpkin makes itself known, but not so much that it overpowers the alfredo flavor or texture. Recipe makes enough to toss with one cooked 12 oz. box of pasta.

Tips:
- Use fresh pumpkin puree: Fresh pumpkin puree has a more intense flavor and a smoother texture than canned puree. To make your own pumpkin puree, simply roast a pumpkin in the oven until it is soft, then scoop out the flesh and blend it until smooth.
- Don't overcook the pumpkin puree: Overcooked pumpkin puree can become watery and lose its flavor. Cook it just until it is heated through and has a slightly sweet taste.
- Use a good quality Parmesan cheese: The quality of the Parmesan cheese you use will make a big difference in the flavor of the sauce. Look for a Parmesan cheese that is made from 100% cow's milk and that has been aged for at least 12 months.
- Don't let the sauce boil: Boiling the sauce will cause the cheese to separate and become grainy. Keep the sauce at a low simmer and stir it constantly.
- Serve the sauce immediately: Pumpkin Alfredo sauce is best served immediately after it is made. If you need to store it, let it cool completely and then refrigerate it for up to 3 days.
Conclusion:
Pumpkin Alfredo sauce is a delicious and versatile sauce that can be used in a variety of dishes. It is perfect for pasta, chicken, fish, and vegetables. The pumpkin puree adds a sweet and creamy flavor to the sauce, while the Parmesan cheese adds a salty and nutty flavor. This sauce is sure to be a hit with your family and friends!
