4 tablespoons butter
1/2 cup salted pasta water

1 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
1/2 cup pumpkin puree

- Add your cooked pasta directly into the sauce and mix well, making sure to coat all your noodles.
- Scoop onto your plate, top with a sprinkle of grated parmesan, and enjoy!
