A savory fall favorite that brings together creamy pumpkin, Italian sausage, Parmesan, and warm spices. It's the perfect comfort meal for a cozy October evening!
Ingredients
1 lb Italian sausage
12 oz rigatoni or penne pasta
1 cup pumpkin purée (not pie filling)
1 cup heavy cream
½ cup chicken broth
½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 tsp Italian seasoning
½ tsp ground sage
Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
Cook pasta according to package directions. Drain and set aside.
In a large skillet, brown the Italian sausage. Add garlic and cook for another minute.
Stir in pumpkin purée, heavy cream, chicken broth, Italian seasoning, and sage.
Simmer for 5–7 minutes until creamy. Add Parmesan and stir until melted.
Toss with cooked pasta and season to taste. Serve warm with extra Parmesan!
Michelle's Tip: Add a handful of fresh spinach or a sprinkle of crispy bacon for extra flavor.
