Boursin Asparagus Pasta

July 12, 2022 Alex Chesney
Boursin Asparagus Pasta shown with locally grown Ontario Asparagus, farm fresh and raised directly in Ontario Canada at the Thames River Melons family farm.

Ingredients

1 bunch asparagus, washed and trimmed into 1 ½ inch pieces

2–3 stalks green garlic, washed, trimmed, and diced

2 cups mushrooms, sliced

2 tablespoons cooking oil

Salt & pepper to taste

Red pepper flakes to taste

1block Boursin cheese

1 lb. pasta of choice

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 cup reserved pasta water

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F.

  2. Place trimmed asparagus, diced green garlic, and sliced mushrooms in a 9 x 13 baking pan and drizzle with the cooking oil.

  3. Stir until all vegetables are coated, then sprinkle on salt, pepper and (if using) red pepper flakes. Stir again until coated.

  4. Hollow out some space in the middle of the pan and add the block of Boursin cheese.

  5. Transfer the pan of vegetables and cheese to the oven and bake for 25 minutes.

  6. While this bakes, work on cooking your pasta. Cook according to package directions, then drain–be sure to reserve 1 cup of the pasta water, though!

  7. Drizzle the drained pasta with olive oil (to prevent noodles from sticking together). By this time the vegetables and cheese should be softened and browned.

  8. Add the cooked noodles to the pan with the vegetables and cheese and stir to combine.

  9. Add a bit of pasta water at a time until your desired consistency is achieved.

  10. Serve with a side salad and a protein of choice.
