Believe it or not, this Barbie-inspired pink pasta gets its incredibly bright colour naturally from beets! After being roasted, beets are blended with mascarpone, parmesan, lemon and garlic to create a velvety pasta sauce. This simple recipe has a short ingredient list and comes together really quickly but to save even more time, you can always use precooked beets from the grocery store instead. Give this pasta a try — it’s fresh, summery and Barbie would certainly approve!Related: 10 Foods Perfect for Barbie’s Dreamhouse
