Ingredients
Scale
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 large onion, finely diced
- 3 cloves of garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon turmeric
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 ½ cups pure pumpkin puree
- 4 cups low sodium vegetable or chicken stock
- 8 ounces spaghetti, or other pasta of your choice
- 6 ounces cream cheese
Instructions
- Heat a large pot over medium high heat. Once hot, add the oil, followed by the onion, garlic, turmeric, pepper, and salt. Sauté about 5 minutes, stirring frequently, until slightly caramelized. Add the pumpkin puree and cook about 2 minutes more.
- Stir in the stock and bring to a boil. Add the pasta and cook about 9 minutes, or until the pasta is al dente. Remove from the heat and stir in the cream cheese. It will take a few minutes to fully incorporate, but once it does, the sauce will be luscious and creamy. Serve immediately.
