Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 12 oz pasta any shape (penne, spaghetti, fusilli, etc.)
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 2 cups cherry tomatoes halved
- 1 clove garlic minced
- 5.2 oz Boursin cheese Garlic & Fine Herbs flavor
- 1/2 cup pasta water reserved from cooking
- salt and pepper to taste
Optional Garnishes
- fresh basil or parsley chopped
- grated parmesan
Instructions
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook pasta according to package directions until al dente. Reserve 1/2 cup of pasta water and drain the rest.
- In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add cherry tomatoes and cook for 4–5 minutes, until softened and slightly blistered. Add garlic and cook for 1 minute.
- Reduce heat to low. Add Boursin cheese and stir until melted into the tomatoes. Gradually stir in reserved pasta water to create a smooth sauce.
- Add cooked pasta to the skillet and toss to coat evenly. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Top with fresh herbs or parmesan if desired. Serve warm.
Notes
Substitute Boursin with whipped cream cheese + garlic + herbs or goat cheese for a tangier twist. Add spinach, grilled chicken, or roasted veggies for variation. Store leftovers in the fridge and reheat gently with added milk or water to loosen sauce.
