Penne with Pumpkin Cream Sauce

Thank you everyone for all your sweet and inspiring comments on all the Halloween Posts. October is almost over, and thank goodness, because I am almost out of Halloween projects. I make this yummy pasta every year because it has such a unique and flavorful sauce.

I also have some adorable "pumpkin" peppers to share with you. My sweet aunt sent me a spoof of my blog for some fun peppers. They are precious and so clever.

Ingredients:

1 bag of penne pasta

2 Tbsp butter

1 onion, chopped,

Salt and Pepper

Garlic salt to taste

Parsley to taste

Pumpkin puree 15 oz

1 cup heavy cream

1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese

Directions:

1. In a large pot of boiling, salted water, cook the pasta until al dente.

2. Melt butter on medium-low. Add onion, salt and pepper. Cook 5-6 minutes until softened.

3. Stir in the pumpkin and heavy cream. Bring to a slow rolling boil.

4. Add the pasta to pumpkin cream mixture and toss.

5. Remove from heat and stir in parmesan, parsley, and garlic salt to taste.

6. Enjoy!
