Baked Romanesco Pasta

Ingredients

  • 1 head romanesco
  • 1 lb squash (I used butternut – zucchini or yellow would also work)
  • 2 packages Boursin cheese (10.4 oz total)
  • 12 oz uncooked short pasta
  • 1/2 cup parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 cup pasta water
  • 3-4 garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1/2 tbsp italian seasoning
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • Fresh basil leaves, chopped

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
  2. Drizzle olive oil on the bottom of a 9×13 baking dish, then place both Boursin cheeses in the middle of the baking dish.
  3. Finely chop romanesco and squash into small pieces, then place around cheese. Drizzle a bit more olive oil over the veggies, as well as, the Italian seasoning, salt, pepper, and minced garlic.
  4. Bake veggies and cheese for 30-35 minutes.
  5. While the mixture is baking, cook pasta according to package instructions. Once pasta is cooked through, reserve 1/2 cup pasta water then drain the pasta.
  6. Once veggies are cooked through, mix in pasta and reserved water, then top with parmesan cheese. Cook for another 5-10 minutes until cheese has melted on top.
  7. Take out of oven, let cool, then top with chopped basil and enjoy!
  8. *You can also add in cooked chicken, if you’re looking to add more protein to the dish*
