4 shallots, peeled and quartered lengthwise
3 tablespoons olive oil
1/4 cup fresh rosemary leaf
12 ounces rigatoni pasta

Directions:
1. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees.
2. Toss pumpkin, shallots, oil, rosemary and salt and pepper to taste in a large bowl until combined.
3. Spread on a large rimmed baking sheet. (Do not crowd the sheet, use 2 sheets if required).
4. Roast until pumpkin is tender, 30 - 35 minutes.
5. Toss vegetables halfway through, and rotate sheet if necessary.
6. In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook pasta until al dente.
