If you assemble all ingredients before preparing, you can make sauce while veggies are microwaving. I used medium saucepan on stovetop, and 8x8" glass baking dish to heat veggies and serve final dish. McCormick Sauce mix instructs adding butter and milk to mix. H-E-B Steamables Edamame Pasta Blend is bowtie pasta, edamame beans, broccoli florets, baby carrots, and red pepper in a bag designed for steaming contents in bag in microwave. Can also prepare veggies/pasta in the 8x8" glass baking dish in microwave with a 1/4 c water. Microwave cooking times may vary.
Substitutions: Can use McCormick Creamy Alfredo Sauce Mix, your favorite cream sauce, or make a garlic/herb/olive oil sauce. If using McCormick Four Cheese Sauce Mix, can use non-trans-fat margarine, olive oil or canola oil instead of butter. Instead of milk, try plain soymilk. 3/4 c or 6 oz. canned salmon, canned chicken, canned tuna, or cooked chicken breast can be used instead of pouch salmon, if desired.
