Single Serving Pumpkin Vodka Pasta
With so many delicious recipes on the internet, I have always found it hard to find a single-serve go-to recipe to make on nights where it’s just me.
If you are looking for a comforting & quick throw it together meal at the end of the day I got you! This single-serving Pumpkin Vodka Pasta can be made in 15 minutes and with minimal ingredients. Double the portion to serve to two or triple the portion to serve to three.
You will need:
1 tbsp EVOO or avocado oil
1/4 small red onion diced
2 garlic cloves minced
2 tbsp tomato paste
2 tbsp pumpkin puree
1/2 cup unsweetened cashew milk
1/4 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
1/2 tsp oregano
salt and pepper to taste
cooked pasta of choice
1 tbsp reserved pasta water
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley (optional)
To make:
Cook pasta accordingly (I used Banza’s Bowties) & reserve 1 tbsp of pasta water before straining.
In a sauce skillet, heat oil. Add onions and saute until translucent.
Add spices ( red pepper, garlic, oregano) and use a rubber spatula to move spices around for a few seconds.
Add tomato paste, pumpkin pure, cashew milk, and pasta water and mix again.
Pour strained pasta over the sauce & add fresh parsley.
Add salt and pepper to taste, enjoy!
