Steps:
- First, add ¼ cup of Filtered Water (or 2 tsp Oil) to a large pot along with the Shallot, Garlic, Nutmeg, and fresh Herbs. Sauté over Medium Heat until the Shallot and Garlic are translucent.
- Add the Pumpkin Puree and Cashew Butter to the pot and mix well. Once evenly incorporated, add the Pasta and Vegetable Broth; stir again and bring to a simmer over High Heat.
- Once simmering, reduce the heat to Medium-Low and simmer for an additional 12-15 minutes, or until the Pasta has cooked completely and only a thick sauce remains in the pot. Stir the mixture every few minutes, to make sure nothing sticks to the bottom of the pot.
- Finally, stir in the fresh Lemon juice and add Salt and Pepper to taste. Remove the fresh Herbs from the pot, if you did not chop them (see recipe notes). Divide the Pasta into bowls and serve warm. Leftovers will keep in the fridge for up to 5 days.

Steps:
- Add all ingredients except the goat cheese and parsley (and any additional salt and pepper) to a large, heavy pot - I use a 7-quart dutch oven.
- Place the pot over high heat and bring to a rolling boil. As soon as it comes to the rolling boil, set the timer for 9 minutes. Stir and toss with tongs as it cooks, stirring frequently for the first few minutes and then constantly as it thickens and begins to stick to the bottom of the pot. When the 9 minutes is up, the pasta should be tender and the sauce will have thickened slightly. If the pasta is not yet cooked, continue for one more minute. Remove from heat.
- Crumble goat cheese into the pasta. Stir gently until melted and combined. Let sit for 5 minutes (at this point, the pasta will seem somewhat soupy, but it will thicken as it sits).
- Stir and taste. Add additional salt and pepper if desired.
- Divide between bowls and sprinkle parsley over the tops.

Tips:
- Use fresh pumpkin puree for the best flavor. You can make your own pumpkin puree by roasting a pumpkin and then blending it until smooth. Or, you can use canned pumpkin puree. Just make sure to get 100% pumpkin puree, with no added sugar or spices.
- Don't overcook the pasta. Cook it al dente, according to the package directions. This will help it hold its shape and prevent it from becoming mushy.
- Use a good quality cheese. Parmesan cheese is the classic choice for this dish, but you can also use other hard cheeses such as Pecorino Romano or Asiago. Just make sure to grate the cheese fresh for the best flavor.
- Add some vegetables for extra nutrition. Try adding some chopped spinach, kale, or broccoli to the pasta. This will make the dish even more nutritious and flavorful.
- Serve the pasta immediately. This is a dish that is best enjoyed hot and fresh. So, make sure to serve it as soon as it is finished cooking.
Conclusion:
One-pot creamy pumpkin pasta is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a busy weeknight meal. It is also a great way to use up leftover pumpkin puree. With its creamy sauce, tender pasta, and flavorful pumpkin, this dish is sure to be a hit with everyone at the table.
