Recipe Summary Pesto Pasta Caprese Salad

The traditional Caprese salad is modified to pasta form. The mozzarella used is a fresh mozzarella, if you use the brick style, it will not be the same. If you can't find the pearlini mozzarella, use the cieglini and cut it in half. Regular rotini pasta can be used but the cooking time will be different.

1 ½ cups rotini pasta

3 tablespoons pesto, or to taste

⅛ teaspoon ground black pepper

½ cup small (pearlini) fresh mozzarella balls
