Fresh Mozzarella & Tomato Pasta Salad - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 (16 ounce) package bow tie pasta, cooked
    1 cup fresh mozzarella cheese, cubed (this is the very soft mozarella cheese, not your standard Kraft-type cheese)
    1 cup parmesan cheese, shredded
    1 cup fresh basil, torn into small pieces
    2 large tomatoes, diced
    1 lemon
    1/2 cup olive oil
    salt and pepper
Preparation
    Cook Pasta and rinse in cool water.
    Toss together pasta, cheeses, basil, and tomato.
    Squeeze the juice from a lemon and mix with olive oil. Toss in pasta.
    Add salt and pepper as desired.
    I actually never measure the ingredients. I just toss until it looks the way I like it. Adjust to your likings. Sometimes it needs to be freshened with a little more olive oil.
