We needed a light and healthy side to go with our grilled chicken breast and honey mustard sauce for our Mother’s Day lunch. After scouring the pantry and freezer for some staples, this pasta salad came together in a snap. The combo of corn and tomatoes screams summer, which we are definitely ready for! We are all for making our own salad dressings, but sometimes it’s so nice to just open and pour! Brianna’s French Vinaigrette was perfect on this salad. It was bold enough to hold up the to flavor of the whole wheat pasta but not over power the other ingredients.
