Baked Boursin Pasta

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 375℉.

Step 2

Add the cherry tomatoes, garlic cloves, Italian seasoning, salt and pepper, and olive oil to a 9x13” baking dish. Toss until everything is evenly coated with the oil and seasonings.

Step 3

Create space in the center of the baking dish and place the Boursin cheese and cream cheese in the middle of the tomatoes and garlic cloves.

Step 4

Place the baking dish in the oven and cook for 30-35 minutes or until the tomatoes and garlic are soft and fork-tender.

Step 5

While the dish is baking, boil the pasta per the directions on the package. Then set the pasta aside. Reserve 3/4 cup of the pasta water before draining the pasta.

Step 6

When done baking, use a fork to mash the tomatoes and garlic. Add the lemon juice and the spinach to the baking dish and stir to combine it with the softened cheeses, tomatoes, and garlic.

Step 7

Add 1/2 cup of reserved pasta water to the sauce in the baking dish and mix it together. Pour the cooked pasta into the baking dish and toss to coat it in the sauce. If the sauce seems to need to be thinned out more, add the remaining cooking water.

Step 8

Taste and add more salt and pepper if desired. Garnish the pasta with freshly grated Parmesan and chopped parsley if desired. Serve.
