One Pot Pumpkin Pasta Recipes

ONE POT PUMPKIN PASTA

Steps:

• First, add ¼ cup of Filtered Water (or 2 tsp Oil) to a large pot along with the Shallot, Garlic, Nutmeg, and fresh Herbs. Sauté over Medium Heat until the Shallot and Garlic are translucent.
• Add the Pumpkin Puree and Cashew Butter to the pot and mix well. Once evenly incorporated, add the Pasta and Vegetable Broth; stir again and bring to a simmer over High Heat.
• Once simmering, reduce the heat to Medium-Low and simmer for an additional 12-15 minutes, or until the Pasta has cooked completely and only a thick sauce remains in the pot. Stir the mixture every few minutes, to make sure nothing sticks to the bottom of the pot.
• Finally, stir in the fresh Lemon juice and add Salt and Pepper to taste. Remove the fresh Herbs from the pot, if you did not chop them (see recipe notes). Divide the Pasta into bowls and serve warm. Leftovers will keep in the fridge for up to 5 days.

ONE POT CREAMY PUMPKIN PASTA

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.
