Directions
Autumn Pasta with Pumpkin and Sausage, , I made this for dinner tonight making a few substitutions because I was trying to use up things I had on hand. used two packages of Morningstar breakfast patties for the sausage. One was regular and the other was hot and spicy. After it was cooked, I chopped it up into small pieces. I doubled the garlic. As a garlic lover, this is the norm for me on all recipes. My white wine was more sweet than dry. My pumpkin pure was fresh, not canned. I opted for the heavy cream over the half and half. used the lesser amount of the sage, and the cinnamon. I grated some nutmeg fresh and it was between the two amounts listed, so I just threw it all in. My pasta has half a pound of gluten free elbows and half a pounds rotini. It smelled heavenly while cooking and did not disappoint. Looking forward to having leftovers for lunch tomorrow!, I made this for dinner tonight, seeing as it is the first weekend of fall. My husband and kids loved this, but I only thought it was ok. I did everything as directed using the higher amount of cinnamon and nutmeg. I couldn’t find the pumpkin taste at all and I felt it needed some more spicy seasoning. Since it was such a big hit with my family I will be making it again, but next time I will be using hot sausage and then I will be adding more spice to my own dish. Thanks for an interesting take on pumpkin Cherie!
