Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil for the ziti. Add the ziti and allow it to cook until al dente, about 8 minutes.

  2. Step 2

    While the ziti is cooking, place the sun-dried tomatoes in a small bowl, cover with boiling water, and allow them to soak for 2 minutes. Meanwhile, combine the mozzarella, cherry tomatoes, basil, olive oil and garlic in a large bowl. Drain the softened sun-dried tomatoes, chop them fine and add them to the other ingredients in the bowl.

  3. Step 3

    When the ziti is done, drain it well, then add it to the mozzarella mixture in the bowl, toss the ingredients together and season with salt and pepper. Serve while still warm.
