About the Recipe
My go to for all outdoor dining events that I host. Easy to make, super scalable, and served cold.
Ingredients
1 box pasta (I prefer a short pasta but any type works!)
1 cup basil pesto (jarred or homemade). Feel free to add more pesto if desired
1 1/2 cups cherry tomatoes halved
1 1/2 cups fresh mozzarella balls halved
1/2 cup kalamata olives pitted and halved (optional)
1/4 cup diced red onion
Preparation
Cook the pasta in salted water according to package directions. Add a little olive oil to the water to keep pasta from sticking
Drain the pasta and run cold water over the pasta to cool it down.
Chop/ prep the tomatoes, onion, mozzarella and olives
Toss the pasta in a large bowl along with the cherry tomatoes, mozzarella balls, olives, and red onion
Pour the pesto over the top and mix well
Store in fridge until ready to serve.
Serve cold.
