Hot Pepper Pasta Salad

Okay, so I borrowed this recipe from knuckle salad (hot pepper pasta salad w/ roasted corn and cilantro)because it just sounded wonderful. Alright, alright, it's pasta and it's true, I'm a pasta freak! But I decided to tweak it a bit by adding lots of healthy, colorful stuff. On this particular occasion, I served it with honey citrus grilled salmon and steamed broccoli.
So here goes............

Ingredients

• 1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil
  
• ¼c red wine vinegar
  
• 1 tsp chopped fresh cilantro (approximately)
  
• 1 pound elbow macaroni (whole wheat or Dreamfields)
  
• 2 ears sweet corn, husked and cleaned
  
• 1 poblano pepper
  
• 1 jalapeno pepper
  
• 1 tomato, cut into small chunks
  
• ½ each red and yellow bell peppers, chopped
• 2 garlic cloves, diced
  
• ½ red onion, chopped
  
• whatever raw, fresh veggies you have on hand! (ie., broccoli, cauliflower, shrooms)
  
• Salt and pepper to taste
  

Directions

1. Combine oil and cilantro in a small bowl and set aside.
2. Cook macaroni according to package directions.
3. Meanwhile, raise oven rack to highest position, ideally no more than 4–5″ from broiler. Set broiler to high.
4. Remove the stems from the peppers and slice the peppers lengthwise. Place pepper halves cut-side-down on a sheet of aluminum foil, along with both ears of corn, and place on oven rack under broiler. Keep an eye on the peppers: when the skin begins to brown and bubble, they’re done, and need to be taken out. They may take less than five minutes, but the corn will take longer (as much as 10–15 minutes), and will need to be turned several times. The goal is to get some kernels on every side of the ear of corn to roast to a dark brown.
5. When the peppers and corn are cool enough to touch, slice the poblano into thin strips. Chop the jalapeno into very small pieces. Cut the kernels off both ears of corn.
6. Prepare the rest of your veggies.
7. Toss all ingredients together and add salt and pepper to taste. This dish can be served at any temperature (which makes it perfect for potluck).
