Measure ingredients and wash fresh produce. Keep raw animal products separate from ready-to-eat food.
Bring 3 quarts (about 2.8 L) cooking water to a boil in a large saucepan. Cook pasta according to its package, drain and cool promptly in a shallow container.
Cook the peapods in a microwave-safe dish with enough water to remain moist, following package instructions if frozen. Drain and cool; merely warming frozen vegetables for 1–2 minutes is not sufficient if their package requires cooking.
Once pasta and peapods have cooled, combine the remaining ingredients in a clean bowl. Keep the yogurt refrigerated until mixing.
Add cooked pasta and peapods, and toss gently to coat the pasta.
Serve immediately or cover and refrigerate within 2 hours. Keep chilled until serving.
