Whisk together flour, 1/2 tsp. salt and baking powder in a medium bowl. Using a pastry blender, cut in butter until pieces are pea size. Stir in yogurt and 1 Tbsp. milk. Stir in enough of the additional milk, 1 Tbsp. at a time, until dough holds together. Gather dough and press together to form a ball; knead 5 to 10 times or until no longer crumbly. Shape into a 1-in.-thick disk. Wrap in plastic wrap; refrigerate for 30 minutes or up to 2 days.

Directions
Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Roll dough between 2 sheets of parchment paper into a 13-in. round. Remove parchment paper. Ease pastry into a 9-1/2-in. deep-dish pie plate.

Bake for 13 minutes or until partially set. Cool completely. Cover and refrigerate up to 12 hours.
Cut asparagus into 7 (3-in.) spears; set aside. Cut remaining asparagus into thin ribbons using a vegetable peeler. Cut carrots lengthwise using a julienne peeler; then cut julienne strips crosswise into 2- to 3-in.-long pieces.
Fill a large saucepan with water; bring to a boil. Add asparagus spears and ribbons, carrots and sugar snap peas; cook for 1 minute. Drain. Quickly chill in ice water; drain again and return to bowl. Cover and refrigerate up to 12 hours.
