How to make it
- 1. Bring large pot of well-salted water to a boil then add pasta and cook per package instructions. Once pasta is cooked, drain, rinse under cold water to cool completely and set aside.
- 2. While pasta is in process, place another pan over medium heat, add 3 tablespoons of oil and the garlic and cook for about 30 seconds until fragrant. Add zucchini and sauté for 4 to 5 minutes until slightly softened. Add corn, season with salt and pepper to taste and continue to cook until zucchini is tender but still bright green. Remove from heat and set aside.
- 3. In small bowl or jar, combine remaining 4 tablespoons oil, 1 tablespoon lime juice, vinegar and sugar and whisk or shake well. Season with salt and pepper to taste and add more lime juice if desired.
- 4. Add vegetables and feta to pasta and toss with dressing. Taste and adjust with additional salt and pepper or lime to taste.
- 5. Tip: Like many pasta salads, this one can be made ahead and refrigerated until ready to eat, which will allow the flavors to combine even further.
