Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 25 minutes
Total Time 35 minutes
Servings 4 servings

Ingredients

  • 2 cups cherry tomatoes
  • 2-3 cloves garlic minced
  • 2 tablespoon olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 block Boursin cheese
  • 1 package spinach tortellini
  • ¼ cup reserved pasta water
  • 2 cups fresh spinach
  • Fresh basil and chives for garnish
  • Extra Parmesan cheese for garnish

Instructions

  • Preheat & Prep: Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). In a baking dish, add cherry tomatoes, minced garlic, olive oil, salt, and pepper.
  • Add the Boursin: Place the Boursin cheese block in the center of the dish, nestled among the tomatoes.
  • Bake to Perfection: Bake uncovered for 20-25 minutes, until the tomatoes are blistered and the cheese is melted.
  • Cook the Tortellini: While the Boursin bakes, cook spinach tortellini according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
  • Mash & Mix: Once the baking dish is out of the oven, use a spoon to mash the roasted tomatoes and mix the melty Boursin into a creamy sauce.
  • Combine & Serve: Toss in the cooked tortellini, ¼ cup reserved pasta water, and fresh spinach, stirring until everything is well-coated. The spinach will wilt from the heat.
  • Garnish & Enjoy: Top with fresh basil, chives, and extra Parmesan cheese if desired.
