Fresh Mozzarella Pasta Salad
This fresh mozzarella pasta salad is a take on a traditional caprese, modified into a light summer pasta salad. It goes great with anything from the grill, or on its own. When I eat it on its own, I sometimes add about one cup of any cold sausage, chunked (I suggest pepperoni or a lighter summer sausage). Any pasta is fine, but I like the orzo's size.
