Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 25 minutes
Total Time 35 minutes
Servings: 6 servings

Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 cup frozen corn kernels
  • 8 ounces fettuccine pasta
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon fresh cracked pepper
  • salt to taste

Equipment

  • saucepan or pot
  • Colander
  • Large mixing bowl
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Mixing Spoon

Method
 

  1. Cook the frozen corn according to the package directions, then drain and set aside to cool.
  2. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the fettuccine according to package directions until al dente. Drain and rinse briefly with cold water to stop cooking and cool the pasta.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise, grated Parmesan, garlic powder, and cracked pepper; stir until smooth.
  4. Add the drained pasta and cooked corn to the bowl with the dressing and toss until evenly coated. Season with salt to taste.
  5. Cover and refrigerate for a couple of hours before serving to allow the flavors to meld.

Notes

  • Use full-flavor regular mayonnaise, not a Miracle Whip substitute.
  • Refrigerate the salad for a couple of hours for best flavor.
  • When cooking pasta, slightly undercook if undecided to avoid overcooking.
