Recipe by Woman's Day Kitchen This summery recipe incorporates classic Italian colors and flavors, creating a light and tasty pasta dish.

Ingredients

12 oz. fettuccine 1 1/2 c. fresh corn kernels 2 small zucchini 1 pt. cherry tomatoes 1 tbsp. olive oil 1/3 c. pesto kosher salt Pepper 4 oz. bocconcini (small fresh mozzarella balls) Torn fresh basil leaves

Instructions

Cook the pasta according to package directions, adding the corn during the last 2 minutes of cooking. Reserve 3/4 cup cooking liquid, drain the pasta, and return it to the pot. Meanwhile, grate the zucchini on the large holes of a box grater, turning the zucchini to grate the outside first (discard the soft core). In a large bowl, toss together the tomatoes, olive oil, 2 tablespoons pesto, and 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Fold in the zucchini and mozzarella. Toss the pasta with the remaining pesto and 1/4 cup of the reserved pasta water (adding more if the pasta seems dry). Fold in the tomato-zucchini mixture and sprinkle with basil, if desired.
