One Pot Creamy Vegetable Pasta

This creamy vegetable pasta dish is everything I want to eat right now. It's warm, comforting, and couldn't be easier to make. Plus it is packed with nutrition from all the vegetables and tomatoes. If you have twenty minutes, some pasta, and any fresh or frozen vegetables - you can make this.  During a virtual happy hour with a friend last week, we were brainstorming about ways to use up some of the vegetables we had hanging out in the fridge. Although I always try to minimize food waste, I am more conscious about this than ever and want to take advantage of using everything.  Additionally, there have been lots of reader requests for ways to incorporate more frozen vegetables into meals instead of just making them the side dish.

It takes a simple tuna salad to another level and will quickly be your new favorite healthy lunch. Seriously it is the best tuna salad around. I promise you will be shocked at how simple and easy this is to whip up and how much better it is than a traditional tuna salad.
