A pasta dish sounds good. You don't need to melt the brie - just cube it and toss with the hot
pasta. Here are two basic recipes you can use, or tweak to your liking.
TOMATO-BRIE PASTA
1 lb linguine
1/2 cup olive oil
1 brie cheese round (8 ounces), cut into 1/2-inch cubes
3 large ripe tomatoes, chopped
1 cup fresh basil leaves, thinly sliced
3 garlic cloves, minced
salt, to taste
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1. Cook the linguine according to the package directions; drain.
2. Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine the oil, brie, tomatoes, basil, garlic, salt, and pepper; mix well.
3. Add the pasta and toss until well combined. Sprinkle with the Parmesan cheese and serve warm.
