Ingredients
  

  • 1 package pasta bowties or penne are my favorite for this recipe
  • 1 Tablespoon olive oil
  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 1/2 cups frozen peas green beans, asparagus, spinach, or broccoli would be great too
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth or vegetarian broth
  • 1/4 cup white wine
  • 1 package Boursin Garlic and Fine Herbs cheese
  • 1/3 cup sundried tomatoes sliced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh dill or 1 teaspoon dried
  • 1 teaspoon lemon pepper seasoning
  • 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 cup toasted pine nuts
  • fresh pepper

Instructions
 

  • Cook pasta according to package directions. Reserve some cooking liquid. While the pasta is cooking, heat a large saute pan over medium heat. Add a tablespoon of olive oil and the garlic.
  • Cook the garlic for 30 seconds (be careful not to burn it, if you do, start over). Add the frozen peas. If you are using another vegetable, I would steam it first. Peas take no time to cook, but larger veggies take longer.
  • Add the broth and wine to the pan. Bring the mixture up to a bubble.
  • Stir in the Boursin cheese.
  • Add the cooked pasta.
  • Add the sundried tomatoes, dill, lemon pepper, and a grind of fresh pepper.
  • Add half of the Parmesan and toss well. If the sauce is too thick, add a bit of the pasta water.
  • Top with pine nuts and the remaining Parmesan cheese.
