In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Whisk in the all-purpose flour to create a smooth paste.




Gradually whisk in the half and half, ensuring the sauce remains smooth and creamy. Season with salt and pepper.





Add the cheese to the sauce and stir until completely melted. Reduce the heat and incorporate the mixed vegetables, mustard, and salsa. Simmer for five minutes until the vegetables are tender.






Pour the cheese sauce over the cooked pasta and toss to combine. Garnish with fresh cilantro before serving.
