Chicken Pumpkin Spaghetti Sauce with Ravioli

by robinrussell52

One of my favorite fall pumpkin flavors is squash or pumpkin ravioli and even better Pumpkin Spaghetti Sauce. The pumpkin gives the spaghetti sauce the right amount of sweetness without being over powering.

Pumpkin or squash can be interchanged depending on what you have in your pantry, garden, or freezer. They have similar texture, flavor, and consistency.Chicken Pumpkin Spaghetti SauceLayer four frozen boneless skinless chicken breasts on the bottom of a slow cooker. Chicken Pumpkin Spaghetti Sauce

In a large bowl mix 1 8 oz can of roasted diced tomatoes, 1 8 oz. can of pumpkin puree, 1 12 oz can spaghetti sauce. Add to taste a few sprinkles of basil and oregano.

Chicken Pumpkin Spaghetti SaucePour liquid mixture over the chicken breasts. Set the crock pot on low for four to six hours. (don’t forget to plug the slow cooker into the outlet. I have forgotten to do this a few times and it was super disappointing to find supper was not ready at five like I had planned). Use a meat thermometer to temp the chicken. Chicken should temp out at 180 degrees.

Once the chicken breasts are done cut them into bite size pieces. Once cut add the chicken pieces back into the sauce and give it a gentle stir to incorporate the pieces.

A few minutes before you are ready to eat cook ravioli, spaghetti noodles, or your families favorite noodles to the package directions.Chicken Pumpkin Spaghetti Sauce

    I never thought about mixing pumpkin with tomato sauce, but I’m intrigued! I’ll have to try it 🙂
