Lots of bold flavors make this pasta salad a hit!
Add the olive oil, sun-dried tomatoes, red wine vinegar, capers, and garlic to the bowl of a food processor. Blend until the tomatoes are coarsely chopped. Set aside.
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the pasta until al dente. Drain and transfer to a large mixing bowl. Add the dressing and toss to coat. Cool to room temperature, tossing occasionally.
Add the tomatoes, mozzarella, basil, Parmesan and olives. Toss to combine. Taste and season with salt and pepper, if needed.

I just finished eating this for dinner. Oh so good. Even the husband person who is picky really liked it. I got basil out of my garden. Will make it again once the tomatoes are great from the garden. Thanks for posting this!
Really enjoyed this one. I think the sun-dried tomatoes really made the dish. Absolutely no salt needed!

I had almost everything to make this. I substituted green olives for the capers and I used 1/2 Parmesan cheese and 1/2 Asiago. It is absolutely delicious!

made this last night because i happened to have every ingredient on hand (that NEVER happens!). It was delish! The hubby said it’s gonna have to be a picnic staple. Thanks!
