Caprese Pasta
During my pregnancy I developed a love for tomatoes which I had never had before. I made this countless times and could have eaten it for breakfast, lunch, or dinner.
I decided to make it again to see if I still loved it as much as I used to and oh boy do I.
It's super simple to make. Here's how I did it just in case you want to try it yourself.
- Cook half a box of whole wheat pasta in salted water.
- Quarter half of a container of grape or cherry tomatoes and cook them in the oven at 350 degrees until the edges get slightly brown.
- Cut half of a container of small balls of fresh mozzarella in half.
- Slice 3 large basil leaves into small pieces and add to about 3 tablespoons of olive oil in a serving bowl.
- Add cheese, roasted tomatoes, and pasta to serving bowl and toss.
=) It's a super easy fresh meal for Italian night. This is enough to feed my husband, my 3 year old, and myself.
Buon Appetito!
