Ingredients
  

Pumpkin Pasta
  • 1 box gluten free pasta (I use Jovial Foods)
  • 1 tbsp olive oil or avocado oil
  • 5 garlic cloves, minced
  • ¼-½ cup reserved pasta water (more or less to achieve desired texture of the sauce)
  • 1 15 oz can pure pumpkin purée
  • ½ cup coconut milk (I use canned, can also use half n half)
  • 1 tbsp onion powder
  • 1 tbsp salt (more or less to taste depending on preference)
  • 2 tbsp poultry seasoning
  • pepper, to taste

Method
 

  1. Prepare pasta according to the instructions on the box.
  2. In a separate pot or pan, sauté garlic in olive oil or avocado oil until fragrant.
  3. Add the pumpkin and pasta water to the garlic and mix to combine.
  4. Then, mix in the seasonings and coconut cream.
  5. Drain the pasta (I have the best luck when I don't rinse my gluten free pasta, fyi) and add back to the pot.
  6. Pour the sauce into the pot with the pasta and gently stir to evenly cover the pasta in the sauce.
  7. If you'd like, top the pasta with toasted bread crumbs (simply toss in olive oil or avocado oil in a pan on the stove for a few minutes), parmesan and fresh seasonal herbs.
