Notes
- Notes
- Swap the olive oil for butter or an infused oil for extra flavor! You can substitute the fresh mozzarella cheese for any melty cheese of your choice- even make this vegan by using some creamy cashew cheese or dairy-free mozzarella. Customize this pasta by roasting some other delicious vegetables with the tomatoes- who says you can’t add red onion or zucchini?Swap the rigatoni or paccheri for your preferred pasta shape OR use gluten-free pasta! Store the pasta in the fridge for 4 – 5 days, and reheat to serve!
