Cook noodles according to package instructions. Drain and set aside. In a medium saucepan over medium-low heat, melt butter. Saute garlic until fragrant (30 seconds or so). Whisk in the flour and then slowly whisk in the milk. Cook and whisk constantly, until slightly thickened (about 2-3 minutes). Whisk in the cream cheese and parmesan cheese and stir until smooth (about 1-2 minutes). Remove from heat and cover to keep warm. Steam broccoli, red pepper and carrots until tender (about 3 minutes). In a large bowl toss the pasta and steamed veggies. Add the cheese sauce and toss to coat. Serve immediately.
