Pumpkin Pinenut Pasta

20141018_125239

We've been on a bit of a pasta kick lately, I guess because it pairs so perfectly with salad. In our part of Sydney, the temperature has been hitting 35+ a little too frequently (39.5 the other day). I'm a bit heat sensitive, so I want the simplest recipes possible for Summer (oops, it is still Spring!) Give me pumpkin pasta any day of the week, rain or shine.

Ingredients

3 cups pumpkin, cubed

1L soymilk

Fresh thyme, chopped

Salt

Pepper

1 (340g) bag pasta, cooked (rigatoni or penne work best)

1/2 cup pinenuts

 

Place the pumpkin and soymilk in a large saucepan, and bring to the boil. Turn down to low immediately, and leave to simmer for fifteen minutes.

Pour into a food processor or blender, and add the thyme, salt, and pepper. Pulse until combined.

Serve over warmed pasta, and toss pinenuts over the top.
