In a blender, puree the onion mixture, pumpkin, tomato paste, milk, nutmeg, and cayenne until smooth. 2. Pour into a pot and heat. Add generous amounts of salt and pepper. Stir in Parmesan until melted. 3. Meanwhile, bring a large pot of heavily salted water to a boil. Add penne and cook according to package directions. Drain and return to pot. 4.
