Pumpkin Pasta

My little one is a diehard pasta fan. You give him one ‘pat on a back’ for a good job and he would smile and ask for Pasta. Now that gives me enough reason to keep making my pasta variants healthy and tastier .Like some time back I shared Spinach Pasta this time I tried Pumpkin Pasta.

Yes!! You heard it right it’s Pumpkin Pasta.

Pumpkin Pasta served two purposes it made sure my son gets goodness of Pumpkin and also save me from making a normal white sauce. But trust me the taste and smell was so inviting that my husband couldn’t help ask my son to share some bit with him. All he had to say was, “Can I have more, please?”

I honestly didn’t knew a piece of pumpkin which was lying in my fridge for two days can add so much of flavor to our pasta platter (Yes, I made some spaghetti too) and would be such a great hit. Also what worked was the seasoning of nutmeg which took the taste of Pumpkin Pasta to next level and that too without cheese (I just added cheese in my son’s version so you can keep it optional). Offcourse you can make it creamier with adding some fresh cream which I didn’t but I would leave that to you considering if it’s for kids you can add more cheese and cream too.

So trust me don’t wait just puree pumpkin now and go for Pumpkin Pasta right away.
