Something scary to spook the unwanted guests trying to take a bite.

This dish is perfect for the fall season! With a rich sage brown butter base and a creamy pumpkin sauce, this pasta is scary good!

Ingredients

  • pasta (any type)
  • 4 tbsp. butter
  • 4 sage leaves (chopped)
  • 1/2 yellow onion (diced)
  • 8 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 1/2 cup pumpkin purée
  • 1/4 cup tomato paste
  • 1/2 cup cream
  • 2 cups grated parmesan
  • spices to taste

Directions

  1. Melt butter in a large pan and boil pasta.
  2. Once melted, add your sage leaves and begin to brown the butter on medium-low heat. Constantly stir the butter in order to ensure it doesn’t burn. Once the butter develops a dark amber color, add your onions and garlic
  3. Sauté the onions and garlic and then cover the pan with a lid to “sweat” the onions. Take off lid to stir occasionally. Once the onions are translucent and aromatic, add your pumpkin and tomato.
  4. Mix pumpkin and tomato together in the pan. Add cream and mix.
  5. Add salt, pepper and other seasonings to taste. I used oregano, parsley, basil, thyme and some rosemary.
  6. Add your cooked pasta into the pan and mix together, still on heat. Add your cheese and mix until well combined.
  7. Plate and top with more cheese. For an extra scare factor, take fresh mozzarella and cut into shapes to make a spooky face!
  8. With a little bit of prep work, this pumpkin pasta is sure to scare up some compliments! Take it to you next Halloween party, or just make some for yourself!
