in need of dinner ideas? make this creamy pumpkin rigatoni

jumping into pumpkin season with a new DF, GF, & vegan recipe!!

Happy September 1st!! I truly can’t believe how quickly time is moving… since last September soo much has happened. I just hit one full year of self-employment, got married, celebrated 1 million of you following me on Instagram, launched my Substack, started my YouTube channel, and of course, shared SO many new recipes!!! I’ve loved sharing it all with you ☺️ September has always been one of my favorite months and it just feels right to kick it off with a pumpkin recipe, so let’s do it! 🎃🍂

I know pumpkin shows up a lot in sweet recipes—pumpkin bread, pumpkin pie, even pumpkin spice lattes—so I wanted to make a savory recipe using it. Honestly, it’s time for pumpkin to break free from the dessert table and show up at dinner!! This creamy pumpkin rigatoni recipe is cozy and comforting and shockingly dairy-free.

Keep scrolling for the recipe, and tap the video below to cook along with me in my most recent video that just went live over on YouTube! I talk through each of the ingredients and share a step-by-step tutorial that you can watch as you cook🍴🍝
