Ingredients
- 1 pound chickpea pasta Barilla brand, 2 packages
- kosher salt
- 1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil plus more for drizzling before serving
- 3 to 6 cloves garlic finely minced
- 1 eggplant diced, large
- 2 zucchini diced, medium
- 12 ounces cherry tomato halved
- black pepper to taste, freshly ground
- 1 cup kalamata olives
- 15 to 20 basil hand torn, leaves
- lemon optional, juice of one
Instructions
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the pasta according to package instructions. Then, drain and return to the pot. Reserve.
- While the pasta cooks, heat the olive oil in a large skillet, over medium heat. Add the garlic and sauté for about a minute, until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.
- Add the diced eggplant, zucchini and cherry tomatoes. Cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 8 to 10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
- Stir in the olives and basil.
- Pour the veggie mixture into the pasta. Toss to combine, adding more olive oil if needed.
- If using, squeeze the lemon into the pasta.
- Serve immediately!
Notes
- Leftovers will keep in the fridge for 3-4 days. Eat as a cold pasta salad or reheat!
- To reheat, heat more olive oil in a large skillet, then add the cold leftovers. Cook until hot.
- If you plan on freezing this dish, make sure to cook the pasta just less than al dente. That way it won't get mushy when thawed and reheated.
