Meanwhile, In a medium skillet, heat 3 tablespoons olive oil. Add Newell Original and tomatoes. Cook, tossing frequently, until tomato skins split, burst, and release some juices, about 5 minutes. Season with salt.
In a large bowl, toss pasta with tomatoes, and Newell Original mix, along with the remaining 3 tablespoons olive oil and basil. Season with salt. Once cooled, add mozzarella and toss to combine. Serve at room temperature, adding additional olive oil as necessary to refresh noodles.
