1 (12-ounce) package frozen whole-kernel corn, defrosted
1/4 cup chopped green onions
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
2 teaspoons cider vinegar
1 teaspoon lemon juice
1 clove garlic, peeled, ends removed, crushed
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
1/4 teaaspoon dry mustard
1/8 teaspoon ground cumin
1/8 teaspoon salt
In a medium-size bowl, combine zucchini, corn, and green onions; set aside. In a small bowl, combine oil, cider vinegar, lemon juice, garlic, chili powder, dry mustard, cumin, and salt. Whisk together until blended. Pour dressing over zucchini mixture and toss to coat. Cover and refrigerate, or serve immediately. Serves 4.
