Ingredients: 3 small beets, well washed 1/2 pound spaghetti or other pasta 2 tablespoons butter or oil 1/4 cup roasted garlic salt and pepper, to taste 1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
Directions: Fill a large saucepan 3/4ths full with water. Add the beets and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat to a low boil and cook for 15 minutes or until the beets are tender. Remove the beets and place in an ice water bath to cool.
Add the pasta to the beet water. Cook until the pasta is al dente, according to the package instructions. Drain well and set aside.
When the beets are cool enough to handle, remove the skins.
Mash or dice the beets and add them to a saucepan along with the butter, roasted garlic, and salt and pepper, to taste. Stir in the cooked pasta. Cook, stirring occasionally, until everything is heated through.
Adjust the seasoning as needed and serve the pasta topped with Parmesan cheese.
