Time 15m

12 ounces bowtie pasta, cooked according to package directions
1 pound cherry or grape tomatoes, halved (use multi-colored tomatoes if you can find them)
8 ounce fresh mozzarella cheese balls (ciliegine), drained

1 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese, or to taste
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, or to taste
fresh basil leaves, optional for garnishing

Steps:

  • Cook pasta according to package directions. Drain and add to a large bowl. Note - If you don't want the mozzarella in step two to melt at all and want it to remain intact in balls, wait about 10 minutes for the pasta to cool a bit before proceeding.
