Fresh Tomato Basil Pasta
Report
This Fresh Tomato Basil Pasta is an all time favorite dish in our family. We eat this all summer long when we have ripe tomatoes from the garden.

Ingredients
In a large bowl mix together:
- 6 large tomatoes diced
- 10 sprigs of fresh basil finely chopped
- fresh mozzarella cheese cubed (I have them slice it thick at the deli, then it's easier to cube)
- 1/2 cup red wine vinegar
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 1 teaspoon minced garlic
- salt and pepper
Instructions
- Let this mixture marinade in the fridge for at least 3 hours then serve cold over your favorite hot pasta. It is a really flavorful and fresh meal you will love!
For Bruschetta:
- Exchange red wine vinegar for balsamic vinegar and serve over sliced baguette bread. Yum!
Notes
- Nutrition does not include pasta or baguette.
- Garnish with red pepper flakes for a hint of spice.
- Although we served this tomato basil pasta recipe over spaghetti, it doesn't have to be! Any cooked pasta (remember to boil to al dente) like a penne pasta, would be perfect as well. Also, this doesn't just have to be a pasta dish! It is also served deliciously over a baguette.
- Keep your creation in the refrigerator in an airtight container. When ready to enjoy, take out and let it either come to room temperature or enjoy right away, but either way, toss or stir to redistribute the sauces that may have settled.
