Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups uncooked pasta I used penne
  • 1 cup pasta water only using about 1 tbsp
  • 2 5.2 oz Garlic and Herb Boursin Cheese Wheels
  • 1 1/2 cups cherry tomatoes
  • 2 cups small broccoli florets make sure they are small so they cook properly
  • 1 medium vidalia onion any kind of onion works
  • 2 garlic cloves, peeled and minced or pressed through a garlic presser
  • 1/4 tsp table salt
  • fresh cracked black pepper
  • 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
  • 10 basil leaves, chopped well
  • 1/4 cup curly parsley, chopped well

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Start by bringing a large stockpot filled with salted water to a boil. Cook your pasta according to package instructions. Prior to straining, reserve about 1 cup of pasta water. Strain pasta when done.
  • Add the two Boursin cheeses to a 9" by 13" baking dish and surround them with the cherry tomatoes, broccoli florets, and chopped onion. Toss in your minced garlic, salt, and pepper.
  • Drizzle the vegetables with olive oil, then transfer the baking dish to the oven and bake for 35 minutes until the vegetables are cooked through and the cheese is extra soft.
  • When done, add about 1 tbsp of reserved pasta water to the baking dish and mix everything up. Add more pasta water if you feel like it is needed (I do not add any more). Toss in the cooked pasta, and top with chopped fresh parsley and basil. Enjoy!
