Puree ricotta and sour cream in processor until smooth. Boil wine in heavy small saucepan until wine is reduced to 1/4 cup. Stir in cheese mixture. Season sauce with salt and pepper. Remove sauce from heat; cover and keep warm.

Cook pasta in large pot of boiling salted water until just tender but still firm to bite, stirring occasionally.

Meanwhile, heat olive oil in heavy large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add broccoli, carrots, bell pepper, garlic and herbs and saute until vegetables are crisp-tender, about 5 minutes. Drain pasta and add to vegetables. Stir in sauce. Toss well. Transfer to large bowl. Garnish with diced tomatoes. Pass Parmesan cheese separately. 2 servings.
