I don’t know about you, but when it’s hot outside I often crave simple and healthy instead of heavy dishes that make you feel full for the rest of the day (which is a good thing because summer is also bikini time!). One of my favourite recipes is not only really tasty but also fast to make so that you can spend as little time in the kitchen as possible. You can also make this, if you are having guests over since it’s so delicious and almost everybody likes pasta and mozzarella. By the way, an arugula salad would be the perfect side dish, don’t you think?
You’ll need: One packet of pasta (it tastes best with pasta shells), small tomatoes, mozzarella balls (you can vary the amount as you like, I normally use a packet of tomatoes and a packet of mozzarella), basil, olive oil, salt and pepper.
First, start boiling the pasta. In the meantime, gently roast the tomatoes in the olive oil and season them with salt and pepper. If the pasta and the tomatoes are ready, mix them and also add the mozzarella balls and some basil. That’s all! Didn’t I tell you it’s a super-easy recipe?
Happy weekend everybody!

That sounds like a recipe I would definitely enjoy and must try out! And I agree about wanting to eat light meals on a hot day :)
