Lemon and Pasta Salad

 
   
   
   
Ingredients -  
   

12 ounces Pasta
1 cup Frozen Corn
1 medium diced Zucchini
1 1/2 cups quartered Cherry Tomatoes
Freshly squeezed Juice of 1 Lemon
1 tablespoon Adobo Seasoning
1 tablespoon Paprika
1/4 teaspoon Chili Powder (or to taste)
2/3 cup Vegetable Oil

 
   
Preparation:  
   

Cook the pasta in boiling water as directed on the package. Five minutes before the pasta cooking time is over, add the corn to the pot, and then two minutes later add the zucchini. Boil for three more minutes, and then drain. Toss the pasta mixture with the cherry tomatoes in a large bowl. In a small bowl whisk together the lemon juice, Adobo, paprika, and chili powder. Slowly whisk in the oil until smooth. Toss the dressing with the pasta and serve warm, at room temperature, or chilled.
