Instant Pot Pumpkin Sausage Pasta

On a recent trip to the market, I recently discovered a pasta called Zucca (also known as Zuchette) and I was immediately taken with the fact that they are shaped like mini-hollow pumpkins! "I'm gonna make an outrageously tasty and easy Halloween/Thanksgiving-themed pasta," I said. And that's exactly what I did! Loaded with Italian sausage, pumpkin and creamy cheese, Pumpkin Sausage Pasta also has a touch of sweet to add to the savory. But don't get scared! If you can't find Zucca, any short-form pasta will work.

Great recipe! I’ve made it twice so far and the wife and I love it. I could make it every week. Thanks Jeffrey! Great combination of flavors. I found the Zucca pasta at my local Heinens around Cleveland Ohio

Holy freaking shinto, this is so good. I thought it was going to be okay, but it seemed like a little gimmicky? But wow, this scored me big points at the bonfire last night. Thank you sir.

Hi I just wanted to tell you I know that I just watched one of your very old videos on split pea soup but thank you for the great recipe I just searched for split pea and you came up for the Insta pot. I was going to use ham but thankfully I had some bacon and tried it your way very delicious you have a new subscriber! Can’t wait to watch all your other cooking videos!

This looks amazing. I’ll be using beyond or impossible sausage since I’m vegetarian but I’m excited to try this 😊

Just pre ordered the green book Jeff. Look forward to it and trying this recipe.

This is why you're the #1 Instant Pot recipe creator Jeffrey. Pumpkin pasta, who would have thought! Love it!

Love the little pumpkins! Have the first two cookbooks and love them! Our whole family has your books. Have the new one (and copies to gift) in a cart to be purchased.
Will you be doing a vegetarian/vegan one? Would love to have the veg recipes all in one book.
I love that you have pictures of every recipe.

Just made this. FA-NA-MINOL! Great recipe like always Jeffrey!

Looks amazing! Definitely going to try this!

Buying a meat chopper was the best kitchen tool I've ever bought. It's about $8.00 on Amazon and chops the meat so much easier than anything else. You can find that pasta at both Trader Joe's and Amazon.

Love your videos, thanks 😋, since you always tap down pasta in liquids with a small edge tool, have you considered using a potato smasher in your pasta dishes to more evenly press them down?

[sunnyshealthcoaching]

Thank you, Jeff, that looks great! I have almost all those ingredients and was trying to figure out what to do with the sausage I have LOL

[donnabrown]

This looks so good. I would add a veg such as peas or spinach. Also I would try making it with squash as I'm not a fan of pumpkin. You Rock Jeffrey!

Can’t wait to try this!! Looks amazing!! 🤤

The instant pot saves me a lot of time for meal prep. I also buy chopped meats and veggies so all I do is throw everything into the pot and press a button.

Looks amazing, running to the market to get some ingredients 😊🤩

[bootsakikn]

I just made this and it was amazing 🎉 Thank you for this wonderful recipe!! I served some steamed veggies on the side 😋 delicious

Hey Jeffrey - thanks for all your videos - I really enjoy watching them and getting tips. I am not sure whether to get the Instant Pot Duo Evo Plus 10-in-1, 5.7L or the Instant Pot Pro 10-in-1 Electric Multi Functional Cooker. I really just use the pot for pressure cooking, usually after a saute of the meat etc. There's a £60 difference, with the Pro being more expensive. Both have the same 1200W and seem identical - is there anything you'd really like to point out about the Pro that is really worthwhile spending the extra money to get. Like you, I like doing my own custom settings. Thanks in advance for your help!

Oh, Jeffrey. You had me at "pumpkin". 🤣 This recipe sounds delicious. I try to avoid pasta and rice, but for this, I will make an exception! 🎃🎃🎃
