Easy pasta - brie, tomatoes and garlic

  1. Hmmm.....none of the tomatoes ended up on my plate.....

    • 2 or 3 ripe tomatoes, cut into cubes or use sundried tomatoes
    • 1 small round of Brie, rind removed, torn into pieces
    • 1 cup fresh basil leaves, cut into strips
    • 3 garlic cloves, peeled and finely minced
    • 1 cup best quality olive oil
    • salt to taste
    • 1/2 tsp freshly ground pepper
    • Linguine
    1. Combine tomatoes, brie, basil, garlic, 1 cup olive oil, salt and pepper in a large serving bowl. Prepare at least 2 hours before serving and set aside, covered, at room temperature. Bring 6 quarts of water to a boil in a large pot. Add the linguine and boil until al dente, about 10 minutes. Drain pasta and immediately toss with the sauce.
