8 oz uncooked whole-wheat spaghetti
1 serving cooking spray (5 one-second sprays per serving)
1 medium onion(s), chopped
1 pound frozen mixed vegetables, thawed

(Note: You can use any frozen vegetable mixture in this dish such as Chinese vegetables, or even just plain broccoli.)
3. Pour in broth and bring to a simmer, scraping up any browned bits on bottom of skillet with a wooden spoon; cook 1 minute. Stir in yogurt; bring mixture to lowest possible simmer. Stir in spaghetti, cilantro and scallions; serve at once. Yields about 1 heaping cup per serving.
