Step 1

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the pasta for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally. Drain and rinse with cold water to cool.

In a large bowl, combine the pasta, mozzarella balls, halved tomatoes and dressing, and mix together. Add more salt and pepper to taste.

Drizzle with Balsamic Glaze and garnish with fresh basil (optional) and enjoy right away, or for best results, let cool in the refrigerator for at least an hour and enjoy.
