I saw this once on Everyday Italian with Giada De Laurentiis. I can't find it on but this is how I make it (from memory) and it's delicious so I'm assuming it's almost the same! I change my ingredient amounts every time depending on my mood, so it's all just an estimation.
Ingredients:
1/2 lb mostaccioli pasta, cooked (or any pasta)
1/4 cup oil
3 -4 garlic cloves
2 large tomatoes, chopped
1/4 cup fresh basil
salt (to taste)
black pepper (to taste)
1/2 lb mozzarella cheese, cut into small cubes
Directions:
1. Heat oil in large skillet.
2. Add garlic and fry until sizzling.
3. Add tomatoes and basil and saute until tomatoes are tender. (about 5 minutes).
4. Stir in salt and pepper.
5. Add cheese cubes, stir quickly, and pour over pasta. (Cubes should be slightly melted but still retaining their shape).
6. Serve and enjoy!
