Summer is quickly coming to an end but here in South Florida our outside picnics are year round. I LOVE fresh mozzarella and fresh pesto. I grabbed the pearl size mozzarella just to make life easier. They are pre-cut and in cute little bit size pieces. Pairing this with cherry tomatoes was perfect and a no brainer.
Ingredients:
1 Box Rotini
1 Package of pearl size fresh mozzarella
1 Package of sweet cherry tomatoes
1 Jar fresh prepared basil pesto
Directions:
Cooked up the pasta as per the box instructions. Tossing it into boiling water and allowing the pasta to do its magic for 7 minutes.
While the pasta cooks slice up the cherry tomatoes in half and set aside.
Once you’ve given the pasta time to drain and to cool, toss everything together.

Have any summer time favorites? I’d love to try them!
The pasta looks delicious and I love the idea of using frozen fruit as ice cubes–so tasty and fun! Perfect way to celebrate the last little bit of summer, though like you here in Texas our best outside time is yet to come!
Thanks so much!
I really love how flexible pasta can be. It is both healthy and so delicious! Your recipe looks delicious, will give it a try. 🙂
