Delicious Low-Fat Pasta Primavera Sauce image

I found this recipe on allrecipes.com and made it ages ago, and positively LOVED it! Then, for some odd reason, I forgot all about it. Today, when I was going through my allrecipes cookbook, I rediscovered it, and just HAD to post it here. You gotta try this... it's definitely worth all that chopping!

DELICIOUS PASTA PRIMAVERA

From Swansons e-newsletter. This is a healthy version of pasta primavera. I always use either Low Sodium Chicken Broth storebought or use broth I've made myself. I think otherwise the flavor gets too salty. You could make this vegetarian by using vegetable stock in place of the chicken stock.
