Beet and Parmesan Pasta

Written by , Posted in Cheese, Gluten Free, Main Dishes, Pasta, Vegetables, Vegetarian

BeetAndParmesanPenne4During the colder winter months, we get lots of root veggies from Abundant Harvest Organics. Things like rutabagas, turnips, and beets. We get other produce too, of course, but the root veggies are usually the ones that I have more trouble using up.

Especially beets.

I’m new to liking beets. So I’m learning to be creative with their preparation.

BeetAndParmesanPenne

I took last week off from my show. I try to do this every few months or so, not for a vacation, but to work on the behind the scenes stuff that can get neglected. Planning, blog maintenance, and cleaning out the produce drawers are some of those oft thought of, but rarely done chores.

My produce drawers are now almost empty.

A little while ago I made Beet Chips as a part of a Mâche and Citrus Salad. Since then, I’d been wondering if those little chips would be good in pasta. So I looked through The Flavor Bible to see things that might compliment and made up a dish for a dinner last week.

It’s pretty simple. Think beets, parmesan cheese, lemon juice, and honey with pasta. Add a few more carefully chosen ingredients, and dinner is ready.

Happy Eating!
