Tips & tricks
Cool the pasta slightly before tossing it with arugula. Pasta that is too hot makes the salad wilt and can melt the mozzarella too much.

Pasta salad with baked tomato gets more depth than a regular tomato salad because the tomatoes become sweeter and more concentrated in the oven. Mozzarella adds creamy richness, arugula brings peppery freshness and pumpkin seeds add crisp contrast.
