Baked Ziti with Sausage and Pumpkin Tomato Sauce

Preheat oven to 400°F. Cook pasta according to package directions. Drain and return to pot.

Meanwhile, in an extra-large skillet cook sausage over medium until cooked through, stirring to break up sausage as it cooks. Remove from skillet.

Add oil to skillet. Add onion and garlic. Cook and stir over medium 4 to 5 minutes or until tender. Carefully add wine to skillet. Cook 2 minutes or until evaporated. Stir in cream and simmer 1 minute more. Stir in pumpkin, tomatoes, broth, parsley, salt, and crushed red pepper. Bring to boiling; reduce heat. Simmer, uncovered, 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Add sauce to pasta in pot. Stir in sausage and 1/4 cup Parmesan. Season to taste with additional salt and crushed red pepper. Transfer to a 2-qt. rectangular baking dish. Sprinkle with remaining 1/4 cup Parmesan.

Bake, uncovered, 20 minutes or until heated through and lightly browned on top. Sprinkle with additional parsley, if desired.
