Prepare the beets and bring up to a boil. Prepare the kale, wash, rub with the olive oil and salt. Once the beets are cooked, remove, add more water and boil again. Add the pasta once it is boiling. Place the kale in the oven to crisp up. Peel the beets and blend into a sauce. Serve the pasta tossed with the sauce and the chips on top.
This vibrant combination of pureed beets & cottage cheese is practically painted onto the pasta- any shape or strand of pasta will do. Start with this base recipe and embellish. Saute the beet greens to be tossed in, crumble on italian sausage, your favorite cheeses, nuts or other sauteed vegetables. When we tested the recipe, both ricotta and cottage cheese worked equally as well, but for some reason we found the cottage cheese to be even tastier.
Kale chips are probably our favorite way to make kale. Roasted with a light drizzle of olive oil, salt and black pepper, if you so choose. They are simple to make and addictive to boot.
