Bacon & Pumpkin Pasta
[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Pumpkin pasta might just be fall’s most underrated comfort food. Forget the heavy cream, this version gets its velvety richness from roasted pumpkin and coconut milk. Add smoky, crispy bacon and a sprinkle of parmesan, and suddenly dinner feels like a seasonal celebration. It’s warm, savory and a little unexpected – like if spaghetti and meatballs put on a cable-knit sweater. Bonus: swap in gluten-free spaghetti, and it’s just as good. Cozy, cheesy and a little quirky, this pumpkin pasta deserves a spot on your fall menu.

Bacon & Pumpkin Pasta
- 1 sugar pumpkin (halved, seeds scooped out)
- 4 oz. bacon (cut into 2-inch strips)
- 1 can (15 oz.) coconut milk ( )
- 15 oz. water
- 6 oz. gluten-free spaghetti
- 1/2 tsp. salt
- 1/8 tsp. black pepper
- 1 cup parmesan (shredded)
- 2 Tbsp. nutritional yeast
- 1/4 cup fresh parsley leaves
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Place prepared pumpkin on baking sheet, bake 45 minutes and then allow to cool.
- When cool, cut pumpkin into cubes and remove skin (Note: It should peel off easily.)
- On baking sheet lined with parchment paper, place cut bacon and cook at 350 degrees for 20 minutes.
- In medium saucepan, add coconut milk, water, salt and pepper. Bring to boil, add pasta, cover and simmer 10 minutes to al dente.
