     1/2  cup           plain nonfat yogurt

     1/3  cup           part-skim ricotta
     1/2  cup           nonfat sour cream

* I think a shaped pasta like wagon wheels, spirals, or shells might be better.

Cook pasta in boiling, salted water until al dente.
Drain well.

While pasta is cooking, lightly oil large nonstick skillet and set over medium-
high
heat.
When skillet is hot, add wine or juice, onion, and garlic.
Cook, stirring, until soft, about 5 min.
Add bell pepper, carrots, broccoli, and chives.
Cook, stirring, until just tender, about 5 min.
[** I had to slosh in more wine while this was cooking.]

While vegetables are cooking, combine yogurt, cheeses, sour cream, mustard, and
honey in small bowl.
Season with S&P.
Toss with vegetables and pasta.
Serve immediately.
