Cut the zuchinni (and/or yellow squash) in half lengthwise and then cut into thin slices. cut the tomato in half, remove the seeds by scraping them out and chop into half inch pieces. plase the peas in a colander. fill the same sauce pan two thirds full with salted water over high heat, bring it to a boil. add the pasta and cook for ten to twelve minutes or until al dente. pour the pasta into the colander, on top of the peas and drain well. while the pasta is cooking, place the oil in a large skill over medium high heat. add onion, zuchinni (and or sqush), and cook, stirring frequently for eight to ten minutes. add the garlic and cook for a minute, then add the tomato, broccoli and carrots and cook for two to three minutes or until the tomatoes are warm. add the milk and parmesian to the pan and stir gently for a minute. add the passta and peas tot he pan and stir until combined. season with salt and pepper, sprinkle with parmesian and serve immediately
