Corn Pasta Salad

By mamacasma

"After tasting this chilled salad at a family reunion, I immediately asked for the recipe," writes Bernice Morris. The Marshfield, Missouri reader uses tricolor paste, crunchy corn, red onion and green pepper to give the zippy potluck pleaser plenty of color.

Ingredients

• 2 cups cooked tri-color spiral pasta
• 1 package (16 ounces) frozen corn, thawed
• 1 cup chopped celery
• 1 medium green pepper, chopped
• 1 cup chopped seeded tomatoes
• 1/2 cup diced pimientos
• 1/2 cup chopped red onion
• 1 cup picante sauce
• 2 Tablespoons canola oil
• 1 Tablespoon lemon juice
• 1 garlic clove, minced
• 1 Tablespoon sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
