Quick and Easy Pasta Primavera

3/4 of a 16 oz. box of pasta (I use rotini or ziti)
1/4 cup butter
1 envelope Knorr's vegetable soup mix
1 1/2 teaspoon all purpose flour
2 cups milk
2 TBS grated Parmesan cheese

1. Bring a large pot of water to a boil and add pasta.  Cook till al dente, and drain.
2. In a saucepan melt butter.  Blend Knorr soup mix with flour and milk, and then add to saucepan.  Stir.  Bring to a soft boil, and then reduce heat to low and simmer for 7-10 minutes.  Stir in grated cheese.
3. Toss with cooked pasta and serve.
(This makes enough for all seven of us-I usually serve with a big salad and garlic bread.)

    yum! I always love your recipes so will definitely try this one! made your chicken enchiladas last night, figuring I could keep the seasoned chicken out for the picky kids, but no luck, but I loved them! Our fave recipes are the breadsticks and slow cooker chicken fettucine -both those are gone within minutes and often requested!

    You use less than 1 lb of pasta for 7 people??? I use 1.5 lbs for 6 of us, and my oldest kid is only 7. That is planning to have leftovers for my husband to take to work, but STILL, apparently we eat a LOT. :)

    This sounds good! I am also in awe of how in the world you make 3/4 lb of pasta stretch for 7 people?! I have a family of 5 and we eat an entire pound. Guess that's why my hubby and I need to lose a few.:)

    Thank you! The whole family ate this tonight! I added a grilled chicken breast and broccoli to it. Love having another "pantry" meal.

    Thanks so much for sharing! I've made this twice now and my toddler (almost 2) gobbled it up each time! It's so delicious :)
