Instructions
- Cook pasta: Cook the pasta according to package instructions. Darin and set aside.
- Brown the sausage: Meanwhile, in a large skillet, or cast iron pot heat the olive oil. Remove the sausage from casings if needed, and brown the sausage in the skillet, breaking it with a wooden spoon to smaller pieces.
- Saute the aromatics: Add chopped onion and garlic to skillet and saute 3 to 5 minutes or until the onions are tender.
- Create the sauce: Add the nutmeg, cinnamon, bay leaf, oregano, salt, pepper and wine to the skillet. Cook until the wine reduced by half, about 2 minutes. Add the chicken broth, pumpkin and heavy cream. Stir to combine until sauce comes to a bubble. Simmer the sauce until it thickens, about 5 minutes. Remove the bay leaf from the sauce.

Notes
- Note: In the video it says Italian seasoning instead of oregano, however either can be used.
- Properly cool the pasta before storing it, so that it will freeze and store evenly. It will stay fresh for 3 – 5 days in an airtight container in the fridge. Frozen pasta dishes will last for 2 – 3 months, just be sure to allow to thaw fully in the fridge before re heating.
