The easiest and delicious 5-ingredient Creamy Squash Pasta made with all gluten-free and vegan ingredients. Such a delicious “cheesy” pasta with no cheese!

Prep Time: 5 mins
Cook Time: 10 mins
Total Time: 10 mins

Yield: 4-5 people 1x

Ingredients

Scale

16 ounces of gluten-free pasta
6 cups water
1 cup canned organic pumpkin puree
1 cup full fat coconut milk (the cream from the top of the can is best)
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
Sea salt and black pepper to taste

Cook Mode Prevent your screen from going dark

Instructions

Add dry pasta and water to a large pot and bring to a boil (you can add chopped garlic cloves too if you wish)
Using tongs or a spatula, store and turn pasta frequently over high heat and cook for 10 minutes (until water is absorbed)
Remove pot from heat and add in pumpkin and coconut milk and spices and mix well until smooth and creamy
Top with desired toppings! I like to do arugula, parmesan cheese (use vegan cheese if desired)

Notes

*This recipe tastes best day of but when reheating, add some water to the pot when heating up again to help the pasta soften again

**If you are prepping this ahead of time, I recommend doubling the sauce ingredients as the gluten-free pasta absorbs the liquid
