Tips

  • Make sure to use pumpkin puree, not pumpkin pie filling, as pie filling contains added sugar and spices.
  • Save some pasta water from cooking the noodles to thin out the sauce; it makes a significant difference in thickness.
  • When using cottage cheese, heat the pasta on the stove gently to prevent the cottage cheese from curdling.
