Cooking Instructions

Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add pasta and cook as package directs, adding peas 3 minutes before pasta is done. Drain and return to pot.

Meanwhile heat a large deep skillet over medium-high heat. Add oil and heat until hot but not smoking. Add asparagus, squash and snap peas. Sauté, stirring often, 3 minutes or until almost crisp-tender. Stir in garlic, tomatoes, salt and pepper. Cook 2 minutes or until tomatoes begin to release their juices.

Stir cornstarch into broth until blended. Add to skillet and simmer 1 to 2 minutes or until slightly thickened.

Add vegetables, scallions, lemon peel and juice to pasta; toss to mix and coat. Sprinkle servings with grated Parmesan cheese. Remove and refrigerate 4 cups pasta and vegetables (no sauce) for leftovers.
