Ingredients

for the garlic kale

2 tbsp. garlic infused olive oil (see notes)

for the pasta

1 tsp. garlic powder
1 tbsp. chili powder
1 onion, thinly sliced
1 lb. lean ground turkey
8 oz. bucatini, perciatelli, or spaghetti (I used DeLallo perciatelli)

for the pumpkin sauce

teeny tiny pinch of cinnamon
1/2 cup cream or half and half
1 tsp. dried basil
4 cups chicken broth
1 cup tomato puree or tomato sauce
1 1/2 cups pumpkin puree
3 sage leaves, minced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 onion, chopped
1 cup sun dried tomatoes packed in oil

Method

01

Sauce: In a large pot over medium-high heat, add the sun-dried tomatoes and a few tablespoons of the oil. Add the onion, garlic, and sage with the sun-dried tomatoes and saute until soft and fragrant. Add the pumpkin puree, tomato puree, chicken broth, basil, and cinnamon. Simmer for 15 minutes or so, adding more water or broth as needed to keep the sauce from getting too thick. Puree in a blender or with an immersion blender directly in the pot until mostly smooth. Stir in cream and season to taste with salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes for heat.
02

Pasta: Boil the pasta according to package directions. While the pasta is boiling, brown the turkey in a large skillet with the onion, chili powder, and garlic powder. Add a few tablespoons of water if necessary to keep everything moist.
03

Kale: Heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the kale and saute until wilted.
04

Toss the turkey, sauce, and pasta together. Serve with the kale. Top everything with the cheese.
