PASTA WITH BRIE, TOMATOES & BASIL SAUCE
Ingredients
4 cups cherry or grape tomatoes, cut in half
1-pound brie cheese, rind removed and torn into ½” pieces
1 cup fresh basil leaves, cut into strips
3 cloves of garlic, minced
1 cup + 1 tablespoon best-quality olive oil
2½ teaspoons salt
½ teaspoon black pepper
1 ½-pounds penne or other pasta
Parmesan cheese
Basil leaves for garnish
Instructions
Combine tomatoes, brie, basil, garlic, olive oil, salt and pepper in large bowl. Marinate for at least two hours at room temperature or in the fridge overnight (bring back to room temp before making the pasta).
Prepare pasta to ‘al dente’ consistency, according to package directions.
Drain pasta and immediately toss with tomato and brie mixture. Continue to toss until brie melts completely onto the pasta creating a creamy sauce. Garnish with parmesan and basil leaves and serve hot.
