Tex-Mex Corn and Pasta Salad

This recipe sounds great and a perfect side dish for a Mexican meal. I am posting this on 'Zaar for safekeeping and to share with the community. I found this on the back of a bag of Safeway brand Frozen Whole Kernel Corn. The recipe on the back of the bag states, "Here's a great way to use left-over pasta in a salad. It goes together in minutes and serves a crowd." The ingreditents and directions on this recipe are exactly as the bag of corn states, except for that which I had to clarify or switch around due to 'Zaar rules of recipe submission, and for anything 'Zaar didn't recognize, hehe. This recipe also states, ".Recipe developed by cookbook aurthor Marlene Sorosky Gray." Please let me know how this turned out for you. :) Note: I did not include refrigeration time. Show more
