   Add 4 cups water and the salt and bring to a boil.

5. 5

   Stir in the pasta and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the pasta is just tender and the liquid is more than halfway absorbed, 8 to 10 minutes.

6. 6

   Stir in the beans, zucchini and peas and season with salt and pepper.

7. 7

   Return to a simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are fork-tender, about 4 minutes.
