This is a spring staple in our home - so easy and a flavorful way to incorporate more vegetables into our diet. My husband makes special requests for only a few dishes and this is one of them.

This recipe is full of flavor. I added a colorful assortment of bellpeppers, mushrooms and a can of organic tomatoes (drained of its juices). Grilled some chicken breasts and added to the pasta primavera. I highly recommend this recipe! It's delicious!

This is a very versatile recipe--I use different veggies depending on what I have on hand and have thrown in shredded chicken or shrimp as well. I also use bow-tie pasta instead. It has become an easy, tasty and lite family favorite.

I loved the flavor and freshness. My only complaint was how thin the sauce was. Next time, I would make it separately and thicken it a bit. I added mushrooms, which went nicely with the cream sauce.
