Pasta with Mozzarella and Cherry Tomatoes

If you are looking for a quick 10 minute meal for the kiddies (shhhhh you may love this recipe too) here it is. Pasta with mozzarella and cherry tomatoes is the recipe for you and the family.

This is my quick go-to lunch/dinner for everyone when I am short on time but need to feed the little and sometimes big people in my life. By the time the pasta is cooked, you are done with the entire meal.

You can add a variety of vegetables or even add grilled chicken if you want. I add cherry tomatoes and bite size pieces of mozzarella for the right addition of vegetables and protein. I hope you enjoy this quick and simple meal. What’s your quick go to meal for the family?
