Cold Pasta Salad

Now how about ditching those high calorie sauces which makes you stand in the kitchen for quite a time, how about making it little low in calories and a quick easy snack recipe. Sounds fun, eh?
To make this Pasta salad, all you have to do is chop your veggies, prepare the dressing with little mayonnaise and serve it cold to satiate your evening hunger pangs or as party starter.
I used corn, bellpepper, onion and carrots here. You can totally add veggies as per your choice. It's easy to carry in lunch box too but make sure you eat it only after cooling it a bit. Well hey, that's why I called it Cold Pasta Salad as it's yumm that way.
For the extra crunch and nutty toasted flavour, I charred my corn for this salad which was absolutely worth a try.
(Roasting corn is completely optional)
For the Charred Corn :
Heat a cast iron skillet over medium heat. When hot, add the corn kernels in a single layer and cook for about 3-4 minutes. Stir and cook until the corn is charred.
