Pasta Primavera with Mascarpone

Pasta Primavera is a great example of seasonal cooking. Originally this recipe is about the celebration of spring’s first harvest, but its flexibility makes it a year-round favorite. Pasta Primavera is about light and freshness: crisp-tender vegetables with Mascarpone cheese gives it a creamy and irresistibly luxurious feel while staying light.
