Trofie, tomatoes and mozarella with a cream cheese dressing

This is a another really easy and super quick recipe, ready in the time to cook the pasta. Trofie is a short, thin, twisted pasta. It tastes great with pesto – or with the much less salty cream cheese and tomato puree mixture that I use in this recipe.
