3/4 lb spaghetti 1 1/2 lbs tomatoes, seeded and cut into 1/2 inch dice 1/2 lb fresh mozzarella cut into 1/4 inch dice 3/4 c. fresh basil, chopped 6 T. olive oil 2 tsp red wine vinegar 1 clove garlic, minced 1 tsp sea salt 1/2 tsp freshly ground pepper 3 T. parmesan cheese Combine tomatoes, mozzarella, basil, oil. garlic, and salt and pepper in a large pasta bowl. Cook spaghetti and drain well. Toss with the tomato mixture. The heat of the pasta will soften the cheese slightly! Sprinkle with parmesan!
I make this once a week in the summer when I have good tomatoes and fresh basil. I cannot usually find the fresh mozzarella so I use the 4 cheese blend italian by Kraft. Enjoy. We will also have a grilled turkey tenderloin wrapped in bacon grilled on the George Foreman grill!
