A different spin on creamy pasta. Found it on the back of a packet of pasta. Yum! Sometimes i add a few baby spinach leaves before serving, to add a bit more colour. Ingredients:

1 garlic clove, crushed |
1 1/2 cups vegetable stock |
1 cup light cream |
750 g pumpkin, peeled and cubed |
400 g fettuccine pasta or 400 g other pastas |
pepper, season |
nutmeg, season to taste |
Directions:
1. Cook fettucine according to the directions, drain.
2. While the pasta is cooking, sautee onion and garlic with butter in a pan until the onion is soft.
3. Add 1 1/2 cups of vegetable stock and the diced pumpkin. Cook this until tender.
4. Season with nutmeg and pepper, then stir in the cream.
5. Blend this mixture in a food processor until smooth. Return to the pan and stir through the pasta.
