Baked Brie & Loaded Veggie Pasta Bake

with Capsicum, Bacon Bits & Parmesan Cheese

Brie - rich, creamy and irresistibly indulgent! This ‘brie-lliant’ soft French cheese melts beautifully into risottos, complements veggie tarts and adds a luscious, luxe touch to salads with its buttery texture and delicate, earthy flavour. It’s the perfect addition to this veggie-packed pasta bake, too!

We’ve replaced the baby capsicum in this recipe with capsicum due to local ingredient availability. It’ll be just as delicious, just follow your recipe card!
