STOVE TOP BEEF AND PENNE WITH PUMPKIN SAUCE
This is a fast and filling meal. The pumpkin in the sauce adds a nice depth of flavor in addition to a lot of good nutrients. You can use canned pumpkin or fresh pumpkin puree. With Halloween around the corner this is a great way to use up some of your left over jack-o-lantern!

PENNE WITH PUMPKIN SAUCE
I had an abundance of pumpkins that I grew last year, so I tried this recipe from Gourmet Magazine and it was fantastic. The recipe calls for solid packed pumpkin, so feel free to use that if you don't have fresh pumpkin available. This recipe is scaled to serve 2, so adjust according to your needs. I hope you enjoy it!
