Creamy Boursin-Herb Pasta

Pasta lovers unite!

Come gather round, grab a bowl and enjoy this simple-yet tantalizing taste buds adventure! I love a filling pasta that still manages to be light and airy and that is exactly what you get here. The Boursin already has so many flavors that with just a few fresh ingredients we open the aromas and make such a delicious bite.

You can use any pasta you would like but I recommend giving the fusilli col buco a try. It has such a toothsome bite and is my favorite! I buy it from Chucks Fresh Market ( for my locals) or you can go directly to Cento foods, and it can be purchased online. https://shop.cento.com/collections/anna/products/anna-long-fusilli-1-lb
