Summers in the south are usually full of Silver Queen Corn so I always try to get creative with ways to showcase the crop. This is a light pasta that pairs perfectly with grilled fare.

Ingredients

Serves:

DRESSING

4 tablespoons red wine vinegar

3 tablespoons olive oil

1 tablespoon water

2 teaspoons Dijon mustard

PASTA

16 ounce package small tube-shaped pasta (ditalini)

3 cup fresh sweet corn cut of the cob (about four ears)

2 cups chopped cucumber

1 whole red bell pepper (diced)

1 cup crumbled feta

3 tablespoons chopped fresh oregano

3 tablespoons chopped fresh mint leaves

Directions

FIRST Combine dressing ingredients in a small bowl season with salt and pepper and set aside.
