    This Pumpkin Pasta is just a twist on my classic alfredo sauce that I love. I just added pumpkin and nutmeg for the perfect fall dinner recipe. 

    How to make Pumpkin Pasta:

    Step one: Prepare pasta according to the package directions. Drain and set aside.

    • For this recipe I used fettuccine but any pasta will work. 

    Step two: Melt butter in a saucepan over low/medium heat. Slowly mix in heavy cream once melted is melted.

    Step three: Next add in your garlic and salt. Slowly add in shredded parmesan cheese whisking until cheese is melted and sauce is creamy.

    Step four: Add in pumpkin puree and nutmeg and mix on low heat until well combined.

    • Cooking Tip: Make sure you are using canned pumpkin puree and not pumpkin pie mix.
