Pasta Primavera

Light Summertime Pasta Recipe?
It’s so BEAUTIFUL outside! 88 degrees and sunny where I live. I want to make a special dinner for my husband tonight. We’ll eat in about 2.5-3 hours. I want to eat out on the deck at sunset. =)
Anyway, I’m looking for an easy pasta dish that has plenty of fresh/steamed veggies in it. We like carrots, zucchini, broccoli, tomatoes, asparagus, green beans, etc.
I want a recipe that is light and not swimming in sauce. Maybe something like a primavera? I don’t feel like dealing with meat except maybe putting small bits of prosciutto in it.
Thanks!
Oh, and we like mushrooms!
This recipe sounds exactly like what you are looking for.
Have a lovely evening.
Vegetable Pasta Primavera
Start to Finish: 20 minutes
Ingredients

1/8 teaspoon pepper
Shredded Parmesan cheese

2. Add pasta, stirring to separate pieces. Cook, uncovered, for 2 minutes.
3. Using ladle, reserve 1-1/2 cups cooking liquid. Drain pasta and vegetables.
