Pasta with Pumpkin Alfredo
By Our Best Bites
1 package fresh pasta
10 oz Alfredo sauce
½ tablespoon real butter
¼ cup finely minced onion
½ cup canned pumpkin
2 tablespoons chicken broth
1 tablespoon choped fresh sage
½ tablespoon fresh thyme
Follow instructions on pasta to cook. In a separate sauce pan melt butter on medium heat. When melted, add onion. Make sure onion is very finely diced to create a smooth sauce without chunks. Saute onions until soft. Add chicken broth and herbs.
Use a spatula to deglaze the pan a bit and get any cooked bits of onion off the bottom. Add pumpkin and whisk to combine. Add Alfredo sauce, stir to combine, and cook until heated through. Depending on the Alfredo you use, you may need to adjust salt and pepper. Serve on top of prepared pasta and top with freshly grated Parmesan cheese and a sprinkling of extra herbs. Pair it with a salad and breadsticks for a great meal.
