Vegan Pepper Jack Pumpkin Fettuccine is made with the goodness of pumpkin and vegan flavored cheese and folded in with fettuccine pasta. Its oil free and perfect for all the pasta lovers.

I am sure, many of you look for a variety of sauce for your pasta just like me. It’s very natural because lot of times it gets boring eating the same pasta in the same style. Occasionally, we all need a change in our menu and food items.

Since it is fall and pumpkins have already flooded the market I decided to do a pasta recipe with pumpkin as the main ingredient.

There might be many pumpkin pasta recipes flowing all over internet but I am sure you have never tasted anything like Vegan Pepper Jack Pumpkin Fettuccine.

It’s not the regular mac and cheese and neither is it regular pasta sauce. The flavors of this pasta recipe are outstanding and something that your taste buds would want over and over again. The best part of this recipe is that it is oil free.

Before I turned into vegan diet I used to love pepper jack cheese. It’s been a while I have been missing the cheese and I was not in the mood to make my own cheese.

Recently while walking through the store I found this amazing vegan pepper jack cheese and I immediately fell in love with it. I have cooked few recipes with this wonderful cheese and it taste delicious. I finally found my favorite vegan pepper jack cheese that makes my food tastier. Now, I am a happier pasta eater without missing on cheese.

I would genuinely recommend you to cook this Pumpkin Fettuccine recipe. Its delectable and satisfying as well as a perfect savory fall recipe.

FAQs

  • This recipe tastes best when served immediately. Pasta would absorb all the sauce and make it thicker if made ahead of time.
  • You can make the sauce ahead of time. When ready just warm it and toss in fettuccine pasta.
  • Gluten free fettuccine pasta also works well in this recipe.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup pumpkin puree

  • 1/2 cup vegetable broth
  • 2 slices vegan pepper jack cheese (roughly chopped)

Instructions

  • Heat a pan/wok and add pumpkin puree, garlic and crushed chili flakes.
  • Saute and pour in vegetable broth. Mix well.
  • Fold in chopped vegan pepper jack cheese and cook covered on a low flame until the cheese melts. (It won’t be stretchy but will melt nicely like curdled cheese).

  • Turn off the flame and serve warm.

Notes

Vegan pepper jack cheese will give a spicy blend to this recipe so if cooking for kids you may avoid the crushed chili flakes.

      When I saw this cheese I went crazy for it. I usually keep it stocked in my refrigerator. You might try it in Whole Foods.

    This Vegan Fettuccine looks so good! I love using Pumpkin or Sweet Potato for Creamy Pasta dishes as well and I love that you chose to pair it with Pepper Jack Cheese! Such a nice pop of flavor!
