Spaghetti With Brie, Basil, and Tomatoe

2580.1

Basil, Brie & Tomato Pasta



1lb. pasta penne, bowtie or favorite
1 lb. brie (remove rind)
1 c. fresh basil leaves, julienned (no stems)
1 c. olive oil
1 tsp. black pepper
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 large tomatoes, cubed
1 tsp. salt
grated Parmesan

After removing the rind from the brie, cut or tear the cheese into
small pieces no larger than 1 inch in size. Then combine brie with
the tomatoes, basil, garlic, salt, pepper, and olive oil. Set aside,
covered, at room temperature for at least two hours before serving
time. This is important to ensure that the flavors will blend and
the brie will be soft enough to melt properly.

Cook the pasta according to the directions on the package. Drain
well. Toss at once with the marinated brie sauce. Serve immediately
with freshly grated parmesan cheese (if desired).
