Vegan Pumpkin and Sage Pasta
Ingredients:
1 butternut squash (around 600g), diced into cubes
1 bunch silverbeet (or spinach), chopped
1 onion, diced
4 cloves garlic, minced
6-8 sage leaves
2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
200g pasta of choice
Salt and pepper to taste
Vegetable stock or water (as needed)
Who says delicious, hearty meals have to come with a hefty price tag? In today’s episode, we’re diving into the garden and making a super affordable and wholesome Pumpkin Pasta with Silverbeet and Crispy Sage, all for just $0.29 per serving! 🍂 This dish is packed with rich autumnal flavors and easy, homegrown ingredients.
While my sage might not be winning beauty contests anytime soon (thanks to the previous homeowner’s questionable gardening choices), it’s still got plenty of life-and flavour-left in it! Paired with some silverbeet that’s practically taking over my garden, this dish comes together beautifully. Plus, everything’s organic and spray-free, which means it’s good for both your body and your wallet.
Pumpkin: Butternut squash gives us a creamy sauce without needing to remove the skin (lazy chef trick, anyone?). The skin-off cubes blend down into a silky, rich sauce, while the skin-on chunks add texture and extra nutrients.
Silverbeet: Adds a pop of green and a mild earthy flavour that balances the sweetness of the pumpkin. This is also the perfect way to use up your garden greens!
Sage: We crisp up these leaves in olive oil for that perfect aromatic touch. Trust me, the fragrance alone will make you hungry.
While making this pasta, I couldn’t help but reminisce about how much of my cooking is guided by the seasons and what’s growing in the garden. My sage may not be thriving in the full sun, but it still brings all its aromatic goodness to this dish. It’s funny how sometimes the most unassuming ingredients can create the most unforgettable meals.
If you're looking for a cozy, healthy meal that's easy on the wallet, this is it. Whether you’re harvesting straight from the garden or using store-bought veggies, this pumpkin pasta is a must-try.
Method Overview:
Start by prepping your squash into skin-on and skin-off cubes.
Crisp up the sage leaves in olive oil, then use the infused oil to sauté onions and garlic.
Cook the skin-off squash until tender, then blend into a creamy sauce.
Pan-fry the skin-on squash cubes for some caramelized goodness.
Boil your pasta and toss it in the sauce with the silverbeet leaves.
Top with crispy sage, crack some fresh pepper, and enjoy!
Cost Breakdown:
Butternut squash: Free (garden-grown)
Silverbeet: Free (homegrown)
Sage: Free (homegrown)
4 cloves garlic: $0.20
1 onion: $0.30
Seasoning: $0.10
200g pasta: $0.18
Total cost: $0.29 per serving
Whether you're a seasoned home cook or just looking for budget-friendly meals, this dish is sure to impress. And if you're here to learn how to save money in the kitchen while still eating well, don't forget to hit that subscribe button!

Hi Sam, could you please post the link to the video where you explain what to make out of the soy pulp? 🙏❤️ Thanks for the videos. Love them 😊
Soooo yummie 😊
I just stumbled across this video ❤ thanks so much, I will definitely try this today. 😊
Loving the garden + cooking content! Are you preparing any crops for summer?
I’ve been really enjoying gardening. We got some peas going. And some cabbage happening! Any suggestions for a hot dry summer ahead in Perth?
I’ve never made bread without my wild yeast starter, but it’s frozen and I’ve had this bakers yeast for over 8 years (yes, it’s still active, I checked😂). I’m going to follow your instructions but I’m curious, what temperature is your house? I usually have to do all the stretch and folds and rests in slightly warmed container… so I’m just curious. Maybe you live in a much warmer climate. 😅
amazing -- will try this, thank you. I wanted a lower fat version of tofu for my stir fries to fit my macros. Lately I have been just using green lentils which is actually delicious but tofu-ifying them might be even better.
Thank you Sam this is perfect as I can't have soy.
Would swiss chard or collard greens be a good sub for silverbeet?
I think they are the same thing. Alternatives could be spinach or even leeks!
Not pumpkin. Butternut squash isn't ever called pumpkin, they are two different Gourds... Different texture, taste and consistency... Looks good though
Yeah I often just say pumpkin because it’s one word vs two words 😂
I think I’ll dehydrate it for flour
Dammmmmn MONSTER silverbeet leaves haha also... YUM
We’ve been having silverbeet for weeks and I’m not even mad
I liked your video, and I will try this bread. However the method of mixing you use in the beginning is not called Rhubarb but Rubaud, after Gérard Rubaud (a French baker) who devised this very effective mixing method. I had a bit of a chuckle when I read "Rhubarb". Oh well, one learns every day, I guess, and I sure hope that you're not offended by post. Thank you. ;-)
Incredible!
🙌🙌🙌
this recipe looks so good gonna try it great video great production gg
also rly jealous of your stovetop lol
Thanks bud. A little msg goes a long way 😉
Nice one Sam 👏🤤
I still dream about them.
Nice recipe ! When talk about unrefined sugar , should mention that it is much healthier than white sugar
Please, someone for God sake tell me this recipe, but with American measurements, please
To prevent tofu from sticking when you fry it, powder it with corn starch before putting it in the pan. "How it tastes like" is grammatically incorrect. It's either "what it tastes like" or "how it tastes".
I just collect the chunks in a jar and sniff it when i'm board.
MSG, Uncle Roger approves
Wait, Sam. Didn't you just use milk?
Yeah. But don’t let me tell you what to do😂
@@SamsHomeKitchen 🤣
@@SamsHomeKitchen Nah, I love giving you headaches.😂😂😂
👍
I will try it today
😍🙌👏
🧋
"It's not bad" does not encourage me to make it.
This is not tofu, even firm tofu
I kinda wanna try it in a stir fry with some spicier ingredients or maybe some variant of Mapo Tofu. However if putting it in a pan isn't the best plan i could always cook it separately and add it in near the end maybe?
Cast Iron works as well, I just noticed that for the crust to stick you wanna go hotter rather than colder with pre heating your pan.
I keep making this bread it's very tasty, but every time the dough is very sticky, it never becomes not sticky. Do you add more flour or less water?
You can try and lower the amount of water to 70% instead of 75. See if it helps with the stickiness. Some flours absorb more water than others.. So for 400 gr of flour you can try with 280 ml/gr of water :) Hope it helps.
Loveeeew the video ❤
Hi Sam. I enjoyed this video. Would you please share how you would make Tofu Scramble out of this Tofu?
Hi Sam. Thank you for making the videos. So many Soy Milk recipes say that you have to remove the skins after soaking. Did you leave them on or just didn't show removing them?
Genius scissor action! Delicious recipe. Chicken for my muslim friend would work well too.
Absolutely! Works well with tofu for vegans too :)
Do you wash the marinade off the pork or leave it on when frying?
I usually just use a small amount of bi carb and leave it on :)
Soaking it in water with a bit of baking soda, will definitely soften it.
Love the recipe and also love the time lapse of soaking the chickpeas. Great work.
Thank you for this! I didn’t have a food processor and I was worried I was out of luck.
why u make this video when im hungry 🤣
😂😂😂
I'm well familiar with the crackling struggle. Thanks for the tips amigo ;)
Haha. Oh yes. I’ve served my fair share of chewy and rubbery skins.
“We do this 3-4 times at 20 minute intervals” I’m out 😂 I’d forget about it
I like banh xao, but as a vegan, it's hard to find a place to make it for me. Well, now i can make my own. Thank you 😊
👌👌👌👌
🤌🤌🤌🤌
Hi Sam when the dough put into fridge for retarding need to put cover the top th ku
dried tomatoes work well too- and as for the cost, if you are going to break it down this way, you need to add the gas to warm the milk .... and i will stop at that ~ nicely done~
Made them this week as a side to fish burgers and was soooo yum 😋
Love it! Thank you for sharing lovely
That looks soo....yummy ❤
Not rooting my own horn. It was pretty good!
Brilliant. Keep up the good work, Sam!
Cheers my friend.
That kitchen thooooo 😻.... Hi Sammmmmmm 👋
Stace! It’s been a while:)
I am loving your channel so far, thanks so much ❤
I tried out this recipe yesterday, and lets just say there were no leftovers, lol. Definitely a new addition to my weekly rotation!! This will be my snack of the summer for sure!! And pairs really well with the homemade sauce!!
Im so glad it was a hit! 🙌
