Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 pound whole grain spaghetti
  • 1 1/2 pounds red beet trimmed and scrubbed
  • 4 cloves garlic peeled, whole
  • 1/4 cup olive oil divided
  • 1/2 cup walnuts toasted
  • 2 Tablespoons tomatoes chopped, sun dried
  • salt freshly ground
  • red pepper flakes
  • 2/3 cup ricotta cheese

Instructions

  1. Prepare spaghetti according to package instructions. Reserve 1 cup of pasta water.
  2. Preheat oven to 400F. Drizzle beets with olive oil and wrap beets and garlic cloves tightly in foil. Roast until very tender, approximately 1 hour. After removing from oven, remove foil and let cool slightly. Carefully peel beets and coarsely chop.
