Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound pasta (penne or rigatoni)
  • 2 cups pumpkin, peeled and cubed
  • 1 block (8 oz) feta cheese
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

  • 1/4 cup fresh basil, chopped
  • 1/2 cup vegetable broth

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
