Delicious and non cream based Pasta Primavera

This could even be Vegan without the Parm.

Of course America's Test Kitchen came up with a terrific "Pasta Primavera"

I made this tonight with Farfalle. I added a bit more garlic and added spinach, shallots and those little grape tomatoes at the end to the leeks, asparagus and peas. Husband thought it would be great with a little ham added.

Basically the Pasta is cooked like a Risotto. It took a while and you needed to stir quite a bit to make sure the pasta was evenly cooked.

You need to register to get the specific measurements but you can watch the video which is what I did and winged it from there.

Really, really a good dish and it will go into the regular rotation for the summer...Filling but light and refreshing with the lemon! Oh I added the zest of the lemon as well.
