Delicious. What a great way to combine fresh summer corn and asparagus. I added lemon zest to the dressing and it boosted the lemon zing. Husband really like the salad. Definitely a do-again.
Delicious, but not a fan of sun-dried tomatoes in this, so 2nd time I substituted halved cherry tomatoes. Even better.
Linguini salad
I used half the pasta 1 c. each corn and asparagus, half the amount of sd tom., cheese and dressing ing. Added some black olives and feta. I also rinsed the oil from the sd toms. I thought it was a good salad.
I made the recipe exactly as written. It didn’t say whether to used “in oil” or dried sundried tomatoes..I used the ones in oil and they seemed to be a bit strong. I also thought the cheese was overpowering. Personally, I don’t care for this recipe at all.
This recipe was easy to make but I felt it needed something else. Maybe more cheese and lemon juice to brighten it up. It was a good idea but needs a few tweaks.
Seriously simple to make and a crowd pleaser every time. A versatile side that is flavorful but doesn’t compete with or overpower everything else on the plate.
