(Serves a Party of 6)
Pasta salad to me is one of those meals that can be an excellent side dish or make for a perfect lunch.
Being such a lover of pasta – this salad uses chickpea pasta made of chickpeas and lentils to eliminate the common guilt we all feel when we eat the typical carb-loaded pasta, plus it is gluten-free!
Filled with bright, beautiful and nourishing vegetables – not to mention the delectable italian parsley – it will be a spectacular dish to prepare for a party or to use as a meal prep for the week.
Ingredients:
- 1 Box of Chickpea Penne Pasta (I use the brand called Chickapea)
- 1 Cup of Shredded Carrots
- 2 Sliced Yellow Bell Pepper
- 1 Cup of Cherry Tomatoes (sliced in half)
- 1 Cup of Sliced Black Olives
- 1/2 Cup of Finely Chopped Italian Parsley
- 1/2 Cup of White Wine Vinegar
- 1/4 Cup Olive Oil or Avocado Oil
- Few Pinches of Salt, Pepper, and Dried Oregano
Start by boiling the box of pasta in about 5 cups of water.
After you prepped all of your veggies and boiled the pasta, simply combine all of the ingredients and give it a good stir!
