Orecchiette Pasta with Pumpkin Cream Pinterest

Orecchiette pasta with pumpkin cream and bacon! In this delicious Italian pumpkin pasta recipe the pumpkin is creamed with parmesan cheese, there is no addition of cream and therefore it’s a light recipe with full pumpkin flavor, so good!

This recipe is easy and quick to make, perfect for light weekday dinners.

Pasta with pumpkin cream is best made with any short hollow pasta, I like it very much with the orecchiette.
