Description

Discover the incredible Pink Beet Pasta Sauce (Barbie Pasta) – an easy, vibrant, and delicious way to enjoy pasta night. This creamy and flavorful sauce is made with roasted beets, heavy cream, and garlic, resulting in a stunning natural pink color that’s perfect for the whole family.


Ingredients

– 3 medium beets, peeled and diced

– 1 cup heavy cream

– 3 cloves garlic, minced

– 1 teaspoon salt

– 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

– 1 pound pasta of your choice


Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Spread the diced beets on a baking sheet and roast for 25-30 minutes, or until they are tender and easily pierced with a fork.

2. In a blender or food processor, combine the roasted beets, heavy cream, garlic, salt, and pepper. Blend until the sauce is smooth and creamy.

3. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the pasta according to the package instructions until al dente.

4. Drain the pasta and return it to the pot. Pour the Pink Beet Pasta Sauce over the pasta and toss to coat evenly.

5. Serve the Pink Beet Pasta Sauce (Barbie Pasta) immediately, garnished with fresh herbs or grated Parmesan cheese, if desired.

Notes

For a thicker sauce, you can add a bit more heavy cream or let the sauce simmer for a few minutes before tossing with the pasta. You can also experiment with different types of pasta, such as whole wheat or gluten-free, to suit your dietary needs.
