One Pan Spaghetti With Beets
TIPS: You'll need a pan at least 8 inches across to fit the spaghetti which you break in half. Use a box grater to shred the beets. Stirring is important so the spaghetti doesn't stick. - Jenny Jones

break the spaghetti?? why?
I break it to fit in the pan. If your pan is large enough, you can leave it unbroken.

I love beets, garlic and spaghetti, so I can’t wait to try this new recipe.
I miss seeing you on You Tube. I keep checking to see if you have any new recipes videos. Your cheerful personality brightens my day.
I have made several of yours recipes and they have become regular food dishes at my house. I especially love the Potato Prorgies. I can’t make those too often because I end up eating most of them.
I don’t have a printer so I keep going back on You Tube to copy down recipes. Each time I have to laugh when you spank your dough!
Have a great day and keep those recipes coming.
Do the beets need to be peeled prior to shredding?
Try reading the intro to the invite of the recipe. Sorry but Jenny does make things very clear..
Take another look – it states peeled & shredded. 😉
Jenny I’m sure it’s good but, the red color of the pasta is just too weird for me. Also miss your videos!

Gee, I don’t know. Beets and garlic, are you sure about this Jenny?
Beet hummus is my favourite which happens to have garlic in it.
Pretty tasty to me, so why not with spaghetti 🙂
