Beet Onion Pasta?

Every October, Art in the Park sets up in our town's main city park. Every year our goal is to buy pasta and garlic from 2 specific vendors. This year we purchased beet onion pasta. I thought, "This will either be really good or just plain awful."
Last night, I boiled it up and by the end it had lost its red hue, but had a wonderfully light onion flavor. I poured the pasta over some roasted brussel sprouts. To this I added some mild Italian sausage. I used the drippings from the sausage to make a sauce with about 4 tablespoons of whipping cream, 1/2 teaspoon of garlic powder, and pepper to taste. It was delicious!
