Creamy Sweet Potato Pasta
On a hot summer's day, a creamy sauce for pasta doesn't sound too appetizing. However, as we get deeper into fall and closer to winter, a nice hearty cream sauce sounds delicious. This is a quick and easy sauce to make, and won't make you go through the trouble of making a roux or using heavy cream.
This recipe uses our gluten-free Pastamore Sweet Potato Fettuccine, but the regular Pastamore Sweet Potato Fettuccine can be substituted. This recipe also features pistachios, but walnuts or pecans are an appropriate substitution. If calories are a concern, the regular cream cheese can be substituted for low-fat cream cheese. Or the recipe can be enjoyed just the way it is!
Ingredients: Serves 3-4
1 12 oz package - Pastamore Sweet Potato Fettuccine
3 oz - cream cheese
3 oz - pistachios
6-8 oz water
To taste - salt and black pepper
Directions:
1. Place a large pot of water (minimum 1 gallon) on the stove over high heat. Bring to a boil. Once boiling, add the gluten-free Pastamore Sweet Pasta. Cook under the desired tenderness has been reached. Remove from the pot and drain using a colander. Rinse thoroughly.
2. Remove the pistachios from the shell and place to the side.
3. Return the pasta to the pot over medium-low/medium heat. Add the cream cheese, water, and pistachios. Mix until a saucy consistency has been reached. Reduce until the desired thickness has been reached.
4. Serve immediately and enjoy!

Sauteed Brussel Sprouts and Sweet Potato Pasta
Kids hate me and most adults won't eat me. I am green and currently in season. What am I?... Brussel sprouts! When cooked right, Brussel sprouts are absolutely delicious and add a great touch to a dish. This recipe uses our Pastamore Gluten-free Sweet Potato Pasta and Pastamore Traditional Barrel-Aged Balsamic Vinegar. The sweet and tasty pasta pairs well with the Brussel sprouts, and the balsamic vinegar really sets the whole dish over the top.
Ingredients: Serves 3-4
1 12 oz package - Pastamore Gluten-free Sweet Potato Pasta
1 lb - Brussel sprouts
1 Tbsp - Pastamore Traditional Barrel-Aged Balsamic Vinegar
3 Tbsp - extra virgin olive oil
1/2 tsp - dried rosemary
1 pinch - garlic powder
To taste - salt and black pepper
Directions:
1. Place a large pot of water on the stove over high heat. Once boiling, add the Pastamore Gluten-free Sweet Potato pasta. Cook until the desired tenderness has been reached.
2. While the pasta is cooking, heat a large frying pan on the stove over medium heat. While the pan is heating, cut the Brussel sprouts in quarters from top to bottom. Add 2 Tbsp of olive oil to the pan and add the Brussel sprouts once the oil is hot. Cook until tender, mixing often. Season to taste with salt and black pepper and add the dried rosemary and garlic powder.
3. Drain the pasta using a colander, and rinse thoroughly with water. Return to the pot and place over medium heat. Add the cooked Brussel sprouts, 1 Tbsp of olive oil, and Pastamore Barrel-Aged Balsamic Vinegar to the pot. Stir until evenly mixed, and heat until warm.
