Delicious Pasta Primavera image

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.
