Pumpkin Pasta
While amazing with pumpkin, this pasta sauce can easily be made with butternut or acorn squash or even sweet potato purees. Be creative and enjoy!
This recipe is pretty and satisfying enough to entertain with, yet easy enough to whip up on a weeknight. This was one of my favorite childhood dishes with the creamy delicious cheese sauce enveloping the shells, topped with a flavorful zesty tomato sauce. Serve alongside a simple garden salad with a classic Extra Virgin Olive Oil & Balsamic dressing.
Ingredients:
1/2 box of our Garofalo pasta
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 Cups Parmesan, finely grated
½ Cup Heavy whipping cream
20ml Black Truffle Oil
Preparation:
Cook the pasta according to pack instructions, drain and reserve some of the water it was cooked in. Gently melt the butter in a large frying pan with heavy cream and cheese, add the pasta and toss the two together. Add 4-5 tbsp. of the pasta water to the pan. Season with salt and black pepper. Heat through then remove the mixture from the pan.
Top with grated Parmesan (Parmigiano Reggiano) and fresh Black Truffle if in season.
