One Pot Pasta Primavera

Here is another one pot pasta recipe I am posting!,,,The one I have posted in the past I make at least once a week now!!,,,So I wanted to try and come up with another version, I added heavy whipping cream to this one at the end along with parmesan cheese, to give it a creamier base, I really like the texture of this recipe, I also added fresh zucchini and fresh mushrooms along with frozen peas, but I am sure you could use  other vegetables as well,,,And I just really like the fact that everything starts out in one pot together, including the uncooked pasta!!,,,Here is what I did,,,Enjoy!!
