I found this wonderful Autumn orzo last weekend at a craft fair. It is a combination of pumpkin, sage, and chestnut orzo. I searched for the perfect recipe to use it in, and I found it! I might use more pasta next time, because it seemed a little too saucy to me. The flavors that blend in this recipe are amazing. Check out the Pappardelle's Pasta site. They have tons of recipes and a wide variety of flavored pastas, including chocolate linguine!

Mm, there's that delicious pumpkin at work again! This would be very easy to veganize, too, so perhaps I'll try it out soon.
