Shaved Beets & Beet Tops Pasta Salad
Serves 4-6
Serves 4-6
Ingredients:
1 box of spiral pasta, cooked and reserved
1 large red onion, sliced thin
1 bunch of beet tops, stems and leaves chopped
1/2 bunch of Swiss or Rainbow Chard, tops and bottoms chopped
2 small beet bulbs, thinly sliced (unpeeled, but washed well)
Ricotta Salata, optional
Parmesan cheese, freshly grated
olive oil, as needed
salt and pepper, as needed
1 box of spiral pasta, cooked and reserved
1 large red onion, sliced thin
1 bunch of beet tops, stems and leaves chopped
1/2 bunch of Swiss or Rainbow Chard, tops and bottoms chopped
2 small beet bulbs, thinly sliced (unpeeled, but washed well)
Ricotta Salata, optional
Parmesan cheese, freshly grated
olive oil, as needed
salt and pepper, as needed
Directions:
- Heat a saute pan over medium heat. Add 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Then add onion and saute until onion is softened.
- Next add the beet tops/stems and chard tops/bottoms. Saute until the greens are just wilted. Add in sliced beets and combine.
- Toss in pasta and mix to combine. Pasta will take on a red/purple hue from the beats. You can add in fresh sage and 1/4 cup of pasta water to build a pan sauce.
- Remove from heat and add in Parmesan cheese, ricotta salata and a good drizzle of olive oil. Toss well. Adjust seasoning as needed and serve!
**If you don't have Swiss Chard you can make entire dish with beet tops and stems
**No ricotta salata? No problem omit it or just dollop with ricotta cheese when serving
