GIRL DINNER! Ways to use Boursin cheese to increase happiness

So, let’s talk about Boursin, shall we? This little French cheese has stolen my heart (and my taste buds) because there are just so many ways to use Boursin cheese. It’s like the sophisticated, cultured friend you always wanted but never knew you needed.

Imagine a creamy, garlicky, herby dream come true. That’s Boursin. It’s the perfect accompaniment to everything from crackers and bread to grilled cheese and even roasted vegetables. And let’s not forget about the iconic Boursin-stuffed mushrooms. Oh, my goodness, a party in your mouth!

I’ve tried Boursin with various flavors, but my personal favorite is the original. It’s just the right balance of everything: creamy, tangy, and with a hint of garlic. But don’t get me wrong, the other flavors are delicious too. I’m particularly fond of the “Red Pepper” and “Garlic & Herbs” varieties, but sometimes the Red Pepper feels too extra, you know? I guess I’m basic.

So, the next time you’re feeling a little fancy or just need a quick and easy snack, reach for a tub of Boursin. Trust me, your taste buds will thank you. And remember, a little Boursin goes a long way. It’s like a tiny, cheesy miracle.

Here are 16 ways to use Boursin in your every day boss life:

1. Classic: Spread it on a baguette and just dine with a glass of wine, feeling extra smart.
2. Stuffed Mushrooms: A classic for a reason — plus a boon for your vegetarian and gluten-free friends who always feel forgotten.
3. Grilled Cheese: Elevate your grilled cheese game — add to a mozzarella melt and let everyone ask where you went to culinary school.
4. Roasted Vegetables: Add a creamy kick to roasted veggies that will make people say “Ooooh what IS this.”
5. Pasta: Toss with pasta and your favorite sauce, or just add a bit of starchy pasta water and a splash of white wine for big boom wows.
6. Scrambled Eggs: A breakfast twist. Try stuffing it inside an omelet and topping with potato chips ala The Bear.
7. Salad Dressing: Create a creamy dressing with EVO, Boursin, a squeeze of lemon juice and a pinch of salt and pepper.
8. Spread: Use it as a spread for sandwiches instead of mustard or mayo.
9. Dip: Serve as a dip for chips or veggies — you get your vitamins in but still feel like you’re fancy af.
10. Appetizer: Toasted baguette, dab of Boursin, a piece of Honeycrisp apple and a drizzle of Hot Honey — done!
11. Pizza Topping: Add a cheesy twist to your pizza — especially try this with someone who loves Hawaiian pizza because this cheese goes with Canadian Bacon and pineapple like whoa.
12. Soups: Add richness to soups, particularly cream-based soups. You can take a can of Campbell’s Tomato and turn it into a gourmet starter course and no one will be the wiser.
13. Fish: Serve with grilled or baked fish. Try smearing it atop the salmon fillet before you roast it in the oven– Heaven.
14. Chicken: Pair with roasted chicken, particularly amazing on the leftover sandwiches.
15. Burger Topping: A delicious burger upgrade. Try a roasted red pepper, smear of Boursin, those canned fried onions you normally only eat at Thanksgiving, and a blast of Taijin.
16. Snack: Enjoy it on its own with crackers. My favorites are the gluten free cracklebrot and Crunchmasters — it’s often my best Girl Dinner!
