1/4 pound mozzarella cheese, part skim milk -- diced
1/4 cup olive oil
1 garlic clove -- minced
2 tablespoons fresh basil leaf -- minced
1/4 cup sun-dried tomatoes, oil-packed
black pepper
* If using oil-packed tomatoes, drain well and pat dry. Mince. If using

package. Dry, then mince.
Cut mozzarella into 1/4-inch cubes. Chop fresh basil leaves finely.
Mince garlic clove; use more garlic if preferred.
Combine the cheese, basil, garlic, sun-dried tomatoes and black
pepper in small bowl. Add the olive oil and blend well. Cover and
refrigerate 1 hour to blend flavors.
