Ingredients

8 oz uncooked fusilli, or other spiral pasta   
1 Tbsp balsamic vinegar, or more to taste   
2 tsp olive oil   
1/2 tsp dried oregano   
  1 cup(s) fresh cherry tomato(es), or grape tomatoes, halved   
1/2 cup(s) basil, fresh, chopped   
2 oz whole milk low moisture mozzarella cheese, smoked, diced (1/2 cup)   
1/8 tsp table salt, or to taste   
1/8 tsp black pepper, or to taste   

Instructions

  • Cook pasta according to package directions; drain and transfer to a large bowl. Add vinegar, oil and oregano; toss to coat.

  • Fold in tomatoes, basil and mozzarella; season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve warm or chilled. Yields about 1 cup per serving.

Notes

  • For added flavor, try sun-dried tomatoes: Place 1/4 cup of dried sun-dried tomatoes in a bowl and cover them with boiling water; set aside for 10 minutes to allow the tomatoes to plump up. Drain well and substitute them for half the cherry tomatoes.

Very good pasta salad, though a little dry. I added some extra balsamic and used whole wheat rotini instead. Would make again for sure!
