When I ask my kids what I should make for dinner, I already know their answer. “Pasta Mozzarella, please.” I’ve been making this for years and my kids gave it the name Pasta Mozzarella. If you are having a hectic day and want to make something quick, this is for you. Family members have begged on hands and knees for me to give them this recipe. I tell them for $100 I will give it to them. But for you, the cost will be free with one condition. Make it soon!
