- •1 ½ cups cubed fresh mozzarella cheese
- •2 fresh plum tomatoes, seeded and cut into bite-size pieces
- •¼ cup chopped fresh basil
- •1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
- •salt to taste
- •1 tablespoon olive oil, or as needed
Instructions
- Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil over high heat. Stir in the orzo, and return to a boil. Cook the pasta uncovered, stirring occasionally, until cooked through, but still firm to the bite, about 10 minutes. Drain well, and let cool.
- Mix the mozzarella cheese cubes, tomatoes, basil, crushed red pepper flakes, and salt with olive oil in a salad bowl. Gently mix in the orzo pasta, and toss lightly to coat the ingredients with oil.
