Eggplant, Roasted Red Pepper and Brie Pasta image

Inspired by a trip to the local KC Farmers' Market :) Quick prep, comes together without making too much of a mess. Special enough to serve to friends, healthy/easy enough to make for just yourself! *** The brie cheese I used was a sheep's milk cheese from the market with earthy undertones. If you're local, pick some up!

Time 25m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 medium eggplant (cubed)
1 vidalia onion (cubed, cut into larger chunks)
6 garlic cloves (chopped)
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
sea salt (to taste)
coarse ground black pepper (to taste, I like a lot!)
1/4 cup fresh basil leaf (chopped)
1 (16 ounce) jar roasted red peppers (drained and cubed)
4 ounces brie cheese (rind on, cut into small pieces)
8 ounces basil and garlic flavored linguine (from the local market, can substitute other flavors or plain, dried pasta)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
  • Line metal pan with aluminum foil, spray with non-stick cooking spray.
  • Place first six ingredients (thru ground pepper) into a ziploc bag. Toss to coat.
  • Empty contents of ziploc bag onto prepared pan and place in oven to roast for approximately 15 minutes (until eggplant is tender and onion is starting to get translucent).
  • Meanwhile, boil salted water and add pasta. Cook to al dente. Drain.
  • Immediately add brie cheese; toss to coat (any residual water will help to make a "sauce"). Add all of roasted veggies (eggplant, onion and garlic), including roasted red pepper.
  • Add chopped basil. Toss again.
  • Serve immediately with fresh, crusty bread and parmesan cheese.

I tried this recipe and it was a disaster. The pasta was overcooked and the sauce was bland.

I'm not sure I would make this dish again. It was good, but not great.

I love the way the brie melts into the pasta. It creates a creamy, luscious sauce.

I'm not a big fan of eggplant, but I loved this dish. The roasted red peppers and brie really balance out the flavor.

I love the combination of flavors in this dish. The roasted red peppers add a little sweetness, while the eggplant and brie add a savory richness. The pasta is cooked perfectly al dente.

This pasta dish was a hit with my family! The eggplant and roasted red peppers added a delicious smoky flavor, and the brie melted perfectly into a creamy sauce. I will definitely be making this again.
