Creamy Caesar Pasta Primavera

4 tbsp butter
1 tbsp minced roasted garlic
4 oz cream cheese
4 oz chive and onion flavored cream cheese
1/2 cup grated Parmesan
1 tbsp lemon juice
1/3 cup Caesar salad dressing
1 cup heavy cream
1 tsp chicken bouillon granules
2 cups frozen mixed vegetables (peas, carrots, corn, broccoli, cauliflower, etc)
Water, if needed
Hot, cooked fettuccine

Melt the butter in a large skillet. Add the garlic, and cream cheese and stir until cheese begins to melt. Add parmesan, lemon juice, salad dressing, cream and chicken bouillon and cook over low heat, stirring occasionally until sauce is well combined. Stir in the vegetables and continue to cook on low heat for about 30 minutes or until the vegetables are tender. Add water if needed to thin the sauce. Stir cooked fettuccine into sauce and serve immediately.

The original recipe called for plain cream cheese, but I didn't have a whole package of plain tonight....the chive and onion version is quite tasty though! I don't remember where I got this recipe...and I've modified so often I don't really remember what I've added and what was in the original.
