The colors in this pasta dish make it perfect for a Halloween potluck but it can be made any time with different pasta! Fresh pumpkin, garlic, chickpeas, and Parmesan make it very tasty with no need for sauce.

Ingredients

2 cups Halloween-shaped pasta
2 cups wagon wheel-shaped pasta
2 ½ cups peeled chopped pumpkin
1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 teaspoon ground allspice
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1 teaspoon chopped onion
1 teaspoon chili powder
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 (4 ounce) can sliced black olives
1 (8 ounce) can garbanzo beans, drained
¼ cup chopped garlic
½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
¼ cup olive oil
3 tablespoons dried oregano

Directions

Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook Halloween-shaped and wagon wheel-shaped pasta in boiling water, stirring occasionally until cooked through but firm to the bite, about 12 minutes. Drain and transfer pasta to a large bowl.
Place pumpkin in a large pot and cover with salted water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until tender, about 20 minutes. Drain and return pumpkin to pot. Add nutmeg, allspice, cinnamon, 1 teaspoon garlic, onion, chili powder, and 3 tablespoons olive oil; stir to coat.
Toss olives and garbanzo beans into cooked pasta. Add 1/4 cup garlic, Parmesan cheese, 1/4 cup olive oil, and oregano. Toss to coat; top with pumpkin mixture.
