Lemon Pesto Rigatoni with Feta & Roasted Pine Nuts

Description

For the Bread:
1 loaf rustic Italian bread
1/2 cup pesto (store-bought or homemade)
1 ball of burrata cheese, drained
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 tbsp olive oil
For the Roasted Garlic Butter:
4 garlic cloves, unpeeled
1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
Directions:
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
To make roasted garlic butter, wrap the garlic cloves in foil and roast in the oven for 20 minutes until soft. Allow garlic to cool, then squeeze out the
softened garlic and mash it into a paste.
In a small bowl, mix mashed garlic with softened butter, parsley, salt, and black pepper. Set aside.
Slice the Italian bread horizontally to create a pocket, being careful not to cut all the way through.
Spread pesto inside the pocket of the bread and stuff with torn pieces of burrata cheese.
Drizzle olive oil over the top of the bread and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.
Bake in the oven for 15-20 minutes, until the cheese is melted and the bread is golden brown.
Remove from the oven and brush with the roasted garlic butter. Serve warm and enjoy!
