How to make it
Cut all the vegetables and take most of the skin of the pumpkin. Leaving some skin on is not a problem. Heat up a pan and add the vegetables, bake them for about 8 minutes. Meanwhile, place a second pan on the stove with broth to cook the macaroni in. Start cooking the macaroni after those 8 minutes are up, then keep baking the vegetables while cooking the macaroni. Cooking macaroni should take approximately 8 minutes, do check the instructions on the package for this. Add the rosemary and paprika powder a couple of minutes before the macaroni is cooked. When the macaroni is done cooking you can add this to the pan with vegetables, for extra taste use a small amount of the cooking broth as well. Add cheese and/or ketchup according to taste when serving the dish. Sunflower seeds are a nice addition, you could use other seeds as well of course.
