Frugal Pumpkin Pasta Recipe

Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil over high heat. Once the water is boiling stir in the spaghetti and return to a boil. Cook the pasta uncovered stirring occasionally until the pasta has cooked through but is still firm to the bite about 12 minutes. Drain well in a colander set in the sink.

Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Stir in the garlic and onion; cook and stir until the onion has softened and turned translucent about 5 minutes. Stir in the chicken stock pumpkin puree and half-and-half. Season with hot pepper sauce cinnamon nutmeg salt and pepper. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until sauce has thickened about 4 minutes. Toss goat cheese into pumpkin sauce and heat through. Serve over pasta.
