- 1/4 cup olive oil

- When approximately 35 minutes has passed then bring a large pot of water to boil, add some salt and the pasta, cook al dente. Drain the pasta and add to the bowl, and gently toss to combine. Serve immediately with some chopped fresh basil if desired. Enjoy!
Notes
- If desired you can add some chopped fresh mozzarella, add it when adding the pasta.
