Ingredients
  

  • 2 Cups Uncooked Pasta
  • 1 & 1/2 Cups Sliced Strawberries
  • Mini Mozzarella 8 oz
  • Fresh Basil Chiffonade (.75 oz)
  • Balsamic*

Instructions
 

  • First, cook the pasta according to their instructions. Once al dente, drain the pasta, run it under cold water (to stop the cooking process), & place the drained pasta in a serving bowl.
  • Next, stir in the sliced strawberries & mini mozzarella.
  • Let the Strawberry Caprese Pasta Salad chill for 1-2 hours then mix in the fresh basil, top with balsamic, & enjoy!

Notes

* If you prefer thickened balsamic (as pictured) simply pour the balsamic in a pan & bring it to a simmer at medium heat, then reduce the heat to low & let it simmer for 10-15 minutes until thickened. I reduce between 1/4 & 1/3 cup, but it depends on how much balsamic reduction you desire.
