Pumpkin, when added to macaroni and cheese, sneaks a hidden vegetable to your meal! The onion and garlic add some flavor, too! Additional seasonings may be added too.

Ingredients

13 ¼ ounces whole wheat spiral pasta
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 large onion, chopped
4 cloves garlic, chopped
¼ cup whole wheat flour
2 cups soy milk
1 ½ cups pumpkin puree
1 (8 ounce) package shredded Cheddar cheese

Directions

Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook pasta in the boiling water, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 12 minutes.
Meanwhile, heat oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Saute onion and garlic until softened and lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Stir in whole wheat flour until combined. Stir in soy milk, pumpkin puree, and Cheddar cheese.
Drain pasta and mix into the sauce. Cook until heated through, about 5 minutes.
