Eating your veggies can, in fact, be a vibe.
See: this pink Beet Ricotta Cheese Pasta from @cherylshealthylife. And no, there’s no food coloring involved—the pretty hue is all from the beets.
It’s the kind of dish that feels both indulgent and virtuous. Because, yes, it’s a cheesy bowl of carb-y comfort, but it also sneaks in some health benefits.
Beets contain nitrates that help improve blood flow and oxygen delivery throughout the body, supporting both brain and heart health. Bonus: better circulation can also promote more supple, youthful-looking skin. Beets also bring a healthy dose of fiber and antioxidants to the table.
Ricotta cheese is another standout here. It contains around 12 grams of protein per half-cup, and is high in calcium, vitamin B12, and vitamin A.
The end result is a bright, elegant pasta dish that could easily pass for a chef’s special at that farm-to-table restaurant with a three month wait list.
