Steps:
- Start by cooking the bacon. Heat an oven to 400 degrees, line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and spread the bacon out in a single layer. Cook for 10-12 minutes until the bacon is crispy, and then blot off excess grease with a paper towel. Let the bacon cool.
- Cook the pasta in salted water until al dente.
- Drain the pasta and let it cool for 5 minutes. Pour the pasta into a large bowl. Then add about 1/2 cup of the dressing and stir it into the pasta. I like to add the dressing while the pasta is still a little warm so the pasta soaks some of it up giving it more flavor. Let sit for 5 minutes while you prepare the other ingredients.
- Dice the tomatoes and place them in a bowl, and toss with a bit of salt and pepper.
- Dice the mozzarella, finely chop the basil, and crumble the bacon.
- Pour the tomatoes, mozzarella, basil, and bacon over the pasta. Top with another 1/2 cup of dressing. You can opt to toss the ingredients together, but I thought that it looked pretty layered.

CLASSIC PASTA SALAD WITH MOZZARELLA, AVOCADO AND BASIL
With its colorful jumble of tomatoes, avocado, olives, mozzarella and cucumber, this has everything you've ever wanted in a pasta salad. But feel free to customize the ingredients to suit your own tastes (see Tip), and to add lemon and salt to the dressing to taste. As long as you don't overcook the pasta, and add it while still hot to the dressing, you really can't go wrong. Make this a few hours ahead so the flavors have a chance to meld, but be sure not to add the avocado until just before serving.

- Just before serving, add tomato, cucumber, mozzarella and Parmesan to the bowl with the pasta and toss well. Gently fold in avocado and basil.

TOMATO, BASIL AND MOZZARELLA PASTA SALAD
A great pasta salad! It is kid friendly and a real crowd pleaser. This recipe is from the Washington Post. This salad employs one of the best combos in summer food: tomatoes, mozzarella and basil. Even better, it takes about 30 minutes to make, from start to finish. It's always good to use the freshest ingredients, but here it's essential. Fresh mozzarella can now be bought in almost every supermarket. And choose the ripest tomatoes you can find: plum tomatoes are easy to peel and seed, but you can use your favorites.

Steps:
- In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook the pasta until it is done, but still a little firm to the bite. Drain and rinse with cold water until the pasta is completely cool. Let it drain for a few minutes and transfer to a large bowl. Add the mozzarella, tomatoes, basil, scallions, olive oil and balsamic vinegar. Add salt and pepper to taste, adding more vinegar if desired. Serve immediately, or cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
- *NOTE: To peel plum tomatoes:
- Bring a small pot of water to a boil. Have ready a bowl of ice water. Cut an "X" in the bottom of the tomato and remove the stem. Place in the boiling water for 10 or 15 seconds -- no longer. Use a slotted spoon to quickly transfer to the ice water. The skin should simply slip off.
