Fusilli Pomodoro

14 medium Italian plum tomatoes
1/4 cup of chopped fresh basil leaves
1 medium garlic clove, minced
6 ounces of shredded reduced-fat mozzarella cheese
1 tablespoon of olive oil
10 ounces of uncooked fusilli (corkscrew) pasta

Fill a pot with enough water to cover the tomatoes. Bring to a boil and put the tomatoes in. Remove tomatoes after about 10 seconds, allow to cool, then peel and chop them. Mix the tomatoes, basil, garlic and cheese with the olive oil. Let stand in a covered bowl at room temperature for at least three hours.
Cook and drain the fusilli. Add the tomato mixture to the hot pasta. Mix well. Serve warm. This recipe yields 5 servings.
