Ingredients:

1/2 pound pasta, cooked penne, orecchitte or similar type
4 oz. Neufchâtel cheese
3/4 cup vegetable broth
1 tsp. lemon juice
1 tsp. corn starch
1 tsp. water
Kosher salt
white pepper, ground
1 cup baby peas, fresh or frozen
2 cups corn kernels, fresh or frozen
2 Tbsp. olive oil

Directions:

  1. In a small saucepan, over medium-high heat, add the vegetable broth and Neufchatel cheese.
  2. Stir until the cheese is melted and combined well with the broth. Stir in the lemon juice.
  3. Turn the sauce down to low heat and stir occasionally.
