  • This Beetroot Pasta is creamy, cozy, vibrant, and unbelievably comforting.
  • It looks fancy, tastes luxurious, and comes together with simple ingredients you probably already have.
  • Perfect for days when you want a warm, nourishing bowl that feels good for the soul.

I made this Creamy Beetroot Pasta today, and it turned out so good that I couldn’t wait to share it with you. It was raining outside, and I wanted something warm, colorful, and comforting—something that feels like a hug in a bowl. The sweet roasted beets, soft garlic, creamy tofu, and parmesan come together in the most magical way. It’s rich, velvety, earthy, and so, so satisfying.

The best part? It’s incredibly simple. Just roast, blend, boil, and toss. This dish looks like café-style pasta but is made with real, everyday ingredients. It’s also lighter than a traditional cream sauce, thanks to tofu and oat milk, but still creamy and full of flavor.


If you love a pasta that feels wholesome, cozy, and a little bit special, this one is for you.

1. Why This Recipe Works

  • Roasting beets + garlic gives deep, earthy sweetness.
  • Tofu adds natural creaminess without heaviness.
  • Parmesan brings salty richness that balances the beets.
  • Oat milk keeps the sauce silky and smooth.
  • Pasta water helps the sauce cling perfectly.

2. Pro Tips

  • Lemon juice brightens the entire dish.
  • Use shell pasta or short shapes that hold sauce well.
  • Finish with extra parmesan for the glossy café look.
