Pumpkin Cannelloni

Pumpkin Cannelloni

Cannelloni is an Italian pasta made in cylindrical tubes, filled with delicious ingredients, topped with sauce, and baked. Ricotta cheese is a popular filling, but since cottage cheese is easily available in India, I use paneer instead. If you love pumpkin and pasta, youโ€™ll enjoy this delicious fusion. It is also a great addition to my Pasta & Noodles collection.
