What a wonderful find! I was bowled over by the wonderful flavor combination of the garlic, tomatoes, corn, wine, basil, and olive oil (even better reheated the second day). This mixture tossed with the fettucine made for a beautiful salad. Another bonus is that this recipe is low in fat. I actually sent my parents back home with the recipe so they can make it in Florida. [I used fresh corn off the cob and dried basil though I want to try it with fresh next time] -
I had the BF make this the other night. It was very light but filling. I added a sprinkle of freshly grated parmesan cheese. Although I enjoyed it that night, I didn't care for the left overs. To me, it just didn't taste as good. All in all, a good recipe and an enjoyable dish. Thanks Dancer!
