Ingredients:
1 lb. pasta (shape of your choice--from spaghetti to shells--it's up to you)
6 Roma (plum) tomatoes, chopped
1 lb. mozzarella cheese--preferably fresh
1/3 cup chopped basil
3 cloves garlic, minced
salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
If you are using mozzarella that comes in a block, you will want to shred it. I bought fresh mozzarella termed "ciliegine" which apparently means cherry sized. I cut those in half. You want bite-sized pieces basically.
Chop tomatoes
Add oil, minced garlic and salt and pepper
Add mozzarella cheese
Sprinkle with basil
Add warm pasta and toss
Enjoy warm, at room temperature or cold
Oh, that sounds lovely. Fresh and tasty.
