It's October, and that means just one thing: Pumpkin me everything! Including pasta!
Today's recipe features tender noodles stuffed with a cheesy pumpkin filling, topped with garlicky cream sauce and crispy sage before being baked until golden and bubbly.
I love my classic manicotti recipe, but when the leaves start to fall and the temperatures dip, I turn to this pumpkin version instead.
And before you reach for the brown sugar, hear me out: canned pumpkin puree isn’t just for pies! Its earthy, subtly sweet flavor is downright delicious in savory dishes, especially when it’s mixed with creamy ricotta and stuffed into tender manicotti noodles.
Topped with a silky cream sauce, plenty of melty cheese, and crispy sage, this pumpkin stuffed manicotti is comforting without being fussy, and easy enough to pull together for special weeknights or dinner parties.
Enjoy!
