PASTA WITH CORN, ZUCCHINI AND TOMATOES
The two things I love most about this dish of summer vegetables and pasta are the crunch of the corn against the tenderness of the pasta and the fact that I cannot seem to settle on a combination of flavorings that I think is best. Chile powder, a little bit of cayenne, perhaps some cilantro are all excellent choices. But with pasta this seems too heretical even for a culinary atheist like me, so I usually go in a tamer direction: a suspicion of garlic with some fresh tarragon or basil. It is flexible not only in its flavorings but in its ingredients. You can use onions, garlic or shallots, singly or in combination; add string beans (or even fresh limas) to the mix; substitute eggplant for the zucchini. Think of it as a delicious mélange of whatever is on hand.

Steps:
- Set a large pot of water to boil and salt it. Put 2 tablespoons oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and add corn. Cook, stirring occasionally, until corn begins to brown. Add zucchini and some salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until zucchini begins to brown.
- Add onion or shallots and garlic if you are using it. Cook, stirring occasionally, until onion softens, about 5 minutes. Add tarragon and cook for 30 seconds, then tomatoes. Put pasta in boiling water and cook until tender but not mushy, 10 to 15 minutes.
- While pasta cooks continue to cook sauce, reducing heat when tomatoes begin to break down. If sauce dries out (with plum tomatoes, this is likely), add some pasta cooking water, about 1/2 cup at a time. When pasta is done, drain it, toss with sauce and remaining oil or butter, and serve immediately.

ZUCCHINI AND TOMATO PASTA WITH CHICKEN
This is the time of year when I always have an abundance of zucchini from the garden. And, I just can't bear to throw it away. My family devoured this dish when I made it even though they aren't veggie lovers.

SAUTEED CHICKEN, ZUCCHINI, ARTICHOKES AND TOMATOES OVER PASTA
This is a relatively simple dish to make and incredibly flavorful. My family and I eat a good deal of pasta, so I'm always looking for new ways of preparing it. I thought up this recipe while having a craving for marinated artichokes.
