I saw this (it looks so good!), and thought of @FortCluck, especially since I would omit the meat.
I did copy/paste because I hate links.

“Ground turkey or ground chicken would be a great alternative. You want leaner meats for this dish because I feel heavier alternatives like ground beef would overpower the delicate and creamy flavor of this dish.

No alcohol? Use pasta water.”

“Is there a substitute for heavy cream?”
“You can either omit it or use whole milk.
I haven’t tried this with a dairy alternative but I imagine almond or oat milk would work as well.”

INGREDIENTS

•1 pound fresh mild Italian turkey sausage

  • 3/4 pound bucatini pasta

  • 4 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1 medium onion, diced

  • 1 bay leaf

  • 4-6 leaves sprigs of fresh sage, sliced into chiffonade

  • 1 cup dry white wine

  • 1 cup chicken stock

  • 1 cup pumpkin puree

  • 1/2 cup heavy cream

  • 1/8 tsp ground cinnamon

  • 1/2 tsp ground nutmeg

  • Salt and pepper, to taste

  • Parmesan cheese, grated to top


INSTRUCTIONS


  • In a pot, bring water to a boil and cook pasta until al dente then drain it and set aside.

  • In a large skillet, brown sausage until cooked through. Remove from skillet and set aside.

  • In the same skillet, add 2 tablespoons of olive oil and the minced garlic and onion and cook until soft & fragrant – about 5 minutes.

  • Add in the bay leaf, sage, and wine and cook until wine reduces by half, about 2 minutes.

  • Add the chicken stock and pumpkin puree and stir to mix well. Stir in the cream then add the sausage back in.

  • Season with cinnamon, nutmeg, salt and pepper, and let simmer until sauce thickens, about 10 minutes.

  • Add in the pasta and stir to get the sauce coated on all the pasta.

  • Serve hot (remember to remove the bay leaf) with freshly grated Parmesan cheese.
