This is a unique and delicious pasta, perfect for fall. I made this for my girlfriends, and everyone asked for the recipe!
Ingredients
1 package (16 ounces) cellentani or spiral pasta
4 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon olive oil
3 garlic cloves, minced
2 shallots, minced
2 cups heavy whipping cream
1 cup whole milk
4 ounces crumbled goat cheese
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
1/2 cup canned pumpkin
1/2 teaspoon white pepper
2 tablespoons chopped fresh sage
1 pound bacon strips, cooked and crumbled
2 ounces crumbled goat cheese
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
Directions
Preheat oven to 350°. Cook pasta according to package instructions.
Meanwhile, in a large saucepan, heat butter and olive oil over medium heat. Add garlic and shallots; cook and stir 1-2 minutes. Add the next 6 ingredients. Reduce heat to low. Cook, stirring constantly, until reduced, 6-8 minutes. Add sage. Remove from heat.
Drain pasta; gently stir into cream sauce. Transfer to a greased 13x9-in. baking dish. Top with bacon, goat cheese and Parmesan. Bake, covered, for 15 minutes. Uncover pasta; bake until cheeses are melted, about 5 minutes longer.
