Ingredients

12 oz short-cut pasta (penne, rotini, or rigatoni)
1 head of broccoli, cut into florets (about 3 cups)
1 package (5.2 oz) Boursin Garlic & Fine Herbs Cheese
1/2 cup milk or light cream
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
2 tablespoons butter
Salt and black pepper to taste
Optional: chopped fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook pasta according to package directions. Add broccoli florets during the last 2 minutes. Reserve 1 cup of pasta water, then drain.
In a large skillet over medium heat, melt butter. Add Boursin cheese and stir until it begins to melt.
Gradually pour in milk, whisking to form a creamy sauce.
Add drained pasta and broccoli to the skillet. Toss to coat evenly, adding reserved pasta water as needed to loosen sauce.
Stir in Parmesan cheese. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
Garnish with chopped parsley and serve hot.
