Bring the vegetable broth to a boil in a medium-small saucepan. Add the carrots, and lower the heat to
a simmer. Cook for 5 minutes or until the carrots are just tender, then add the zucchini, optional summer
squash and corn. Simmer for another 5 minutes or until all the vegetables are perfectly tender.
Stir in the peas and cooked pasta, and simmer for just a couple of minutes longer. Serve hot or very warm
in small bowls with small spoons. Makes 5 cups.
*Use alphabets, little stars, orzo or tiny circles-or use a combination of them all. The child in your
life will love this, and so will the child in you.
