Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 (16 ounce) package linguine pasta
1 tablespoon olive oil
½ onion, chopped
1 tablespoon ground cumin
1 tablespoon Cajun seasoning
1 (12 ounce) package apple chicken sausage (such as Al Fresco®), sliced
½ (28 ounce) can pumpkin puree
1 (16 ounce) jar Alfredo sauce
½ cup milk
2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese, or to taste

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook linguine at a boil until tender yet firm to the bite, about 11 minutes; drain.
  • Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion; cook and stir until translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in cumin and Cajun seasoning until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add sausage; cook and stir until browned, about 5 minutes. Stir in pumpkin and cook, stirring occasionally, until heated through, about 3 minutes.
  • Pour Alfredo sauce and milk into the skillet; cook, stirring well, until sauce is hot, 5 to 10 minutes. Add linguine and toss to coat with sauce. Serve garnished with Parmesan cheese.
