Caprese Pasta Salad

Shopping list:

Pasta (I used veggie, but feel free to get any style you prefer)
Cherry tomatoes
Fresh basil
Mozzarella pearls
Balsamic vinegar
Extra virgin olive oil

Boil water and dump in desired amount of pasta. Stir occasionally until pasta is tender. Drain and rinse with cold water. Set aside.

Chop up basil (shred) and halve each cherry tomato. Set aside.

Separate mozzarella pearls. Set aside.

Combine a small amount of balsamic vinegar and olive oil in a small bowl. Stir until well blended.

Combine all ingredients into a large bowl. Drizzle sauce mix over salad. Stir. Enjoy.

This salad was delicious. I made a large batch, so I would have leftovers for lunches. If you go this route, I would recommend leaving the sauce off until ready to eat. I also made a Caesar/olive oil mix to mix things up. Equally delicious.

Happy cooking.
