How to Make Pasta Salad With Mozzarella Sun Dried Tomatoes And Olives
- Combine 1/4 cup olive oil, 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard, and 1 clove garlic in a food processor. Pulse until the sun-dried tomatoes are coarsely chopped but not pureed. Set the dressing aside.
- Cook 1 pound pasta (such as rotini or farfalle) according to package directions until al dente. Drain the pasta and transfer it to a large bowl.
- Pour the dressing over the hot pasta and toss to coat evenly.
- Let the pasta cool completely, stirring occasionally, about 20 minutes.
- Add 1 pint cherry or grape tomatoes, halved; 8 ounces fresh mozzarella, torn into bite-sized pieces; 1/2 cup fresh basil leaves, chopped; 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese; and 1/2 cup Kalamata olives, pitted and halved. Gently toss to combine.
- Season generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
- Cover and refrigerate for at least 6 hours or overnight to allow the flavors to meld. (Can be made up to 2 days ahead).
- Bring to room temperature before serving.
