It was good, I think I'd buy it again. Their spinach pizza snacks also rock my world!Anyway, all day I was thinking about making my caprese pasta-with a twist. I thought it would be more filling if I added Cannellini beans (white Italian kidney beans). I was right-they have such a mild flavor, you barely notice them at all. The starring role (of course) goes to the fresh mozzarella. I like to shred the little balls so there's more to spread amongst the pasta. I used orzo, but you can use any short noodle you like.
I also added another twist-instead of using EVOO, I used this dressing. Brian bought it for my salad the other night-it is SO delicious!
Threw in some more seasonings along with fresh basil & voila-dinner!
Add more dressing if needed to coat all the noodles.
Oh, be sure to rinse the pasta repeatedly until it is completely cold-you don't want your mozzarella to get all melty!
This is definitely a go-to dinner in the summer. (it can also be a great side dish) The heat makes me lose my appetite & as much as I love salad, I can't eat it every single day. This is a perfect meal for me in the heat & its quick & easy-which you know I love!
