4ouncescreamy goat cheese, divided

¼cupcoarsely chopped walnuts, toasted (see Tip)

¼cupchopped fresh basil

Directions

Bring a large pot of water to boil. Add fettuccine (or pappardelle); cook according to package directions. Reserve 1/2 cup cooking water; drain and set aside.

Meanwhile, combine beets, water, oil, miso, lemon zest, salt, pepper and 2 ounces goat cheese in a blender; blend until smooth, about 1 minute. Crumble the remaining 2 ounces goat cheese and set aside.

Transfer the beet sauce to a large skillet and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Add the pasta; toss gently to coat, adding the reserved cooking water, 1 tablespoon at a time, to reach the desired consistency.

Divide the pasta among 4 bowls and sprinkle evenly with the crumbled goat cheese, walnuts and basil. Serve immediately.

Tip

For the best flavor, toast nuts before using in a recipe. To toast chopped nuts, place in a small dry skillet and cook over medium-low heat, stirring constantly, until fragrant, 2 to 4 minutes.

Nutrition Facts(per serving)

  • Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
