This is another recipe Rach and took out of the mild calendar and modified it a bit.  

You will need:

• 12 baby new potatoes, cut in half
• 1 cup carrots, chopped
• 2 cups broccoli, chopped
• 1 cup green beans, cut in small pieces
• 1/2 cup frozen green peas
• 1 onion, chopped
• 1/2 tsp. thyme
• 1-1/2 cups of milk
• 1 cup Asiago cheese, shredded
• 1/2 tsp. hot pepper flakes
• 2 tsp. Dijon mustard
• 2 tbsp. fresh basil, chopped
• 2 tbsp. corn starch
• vegetable oil
• Salt and pepper

Combine potatoes, peas, beans and carrots in a large sauce pan, over with water and boil until almost tender.  Add in broccoli. Cook for another 10 minutes or so. Drain and set aside.

Saute onion in vegetable oil.  Add thyme and hot pepper flakes. Stir in cornstarch and add milk.  Bring to a boil, whisking constantly until thickened. Add in Asiago cheese.

Toss milk mixture with cooked vegetables and add salt and pepper to taste.
