Recipe: Creamy Pumpkin Marinara

I am all for the pumpkin craze that happens every fall. In fact, I use pumpkin year round in things like quesadillas, muffins and waffles for the kids. It’s so nutritious and easy to use. I had to share this recipe we made for dinner last night because it was such a creative way to utilize the vegetable. Although it has a touch a cinnamon and a dash of maple, it’s very savory. It’s time to cosy up and enjoy a bowl of pasta with creamy pumpkin marinara! Recipe adapted from cookieandkate.com.

I’ve made it with delicata, butternut and pumpkin and loved the subtle flavor differences in each one. This is the perfect accompaniment to any soup or stew. Enjoy!

For now, we celebrate with new seasonal produce!
