PASTA WITH PUMPKIN & PESTO
I like things that are quick & easy to prepare & this is no exception. This is a nice quick meal. I usually use a chunky pasta like vegeroni or penne and you can cut down the fat by using light evaporated milk if you like, I usually do. For a vegetarian meal just leave out the bacon. Much to my amazement this was even a hit with my 17 month old daughter. Tastes great cold too so could be a pumpkin pesto pasta salad!

PUMPKIN & PESTO PENNE
A tasty mid-week meal. Quick to prepare and the left-overs tasted just as great. Recipe from Recipes+ February 2010. I didn't use quite as much pasta as the recipe calls for, but have reproduced the recipe here, as it was published.

BACON PUMPKIN AND PESTO PASTA
In this recipe, the ingredients are tossed into the pasta, rather than forming a sauce. Great for a quick and easy mid-week meal with salad. I use Kent or Jap pumpkin, available in Australia, and free-range bacon. You can make your own pesto, or buy it ready-made. I like the Sacla brand. Recipe adapted from "Australian Good Taste" magazine.

PUMPKIN SEED ARUGULA PESTO SAUCE (VEGAN)
A mouthwatering selection from ExtraVeganZa, posted as written that makes a nice change for pasta dishes and pizzas from the traditional basil and walnut pesto. Add some nutritional yeast for cheeziness factor since this lacks parmesan or asiago cheese.
