MainRecipesMaindish | Pumpkin and Sausage Penne

   Pumpkin and Sausage Penne submitted by Mom Johnson
Description
A fairly quick Fall-season meal! Use spicy or regular turkey sausage.

Directions
Cook pasta according to package directions. Meanwhile, in a large skillet, cook sausage over medium heat until no longer pink, breaking into crumbles. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Discard all but about 2 tsp. drippings. Cook and stir onion and garlic in remaining drippings until tender. Add wine and bay leaf. Bring to a boil and cook until liquid is reduced by half.

Stir in the broth, pumpkin, fresh sage and remaining seasonings and cook for 1 minute longer. Add the cream and the sausage and heat through. Remove the bay leaf.

Drain the pasta and transfer to a large bowl. Add sausage mixture and toss to coat. Sprinkle with cheese and any remaining chopped sage, if desired. Makes about 4 servings.
