Why You’ll Love This Hummus Pasta Recipe
So flipping easy. Hummus pasta is the perfect quick lunch or weeknight dinner, since the hummus pasta sauce is basically just a matter of adding water. Simple! Budget-friendly. I love how affordable hummus pasta is. Whether you’re making your own hummus or using store-bought, it’s very budget-friendly and great for meal prep. Delicious and creamy. A hummus sauce for pasta just makes sense—it’s a great way to get a creamy, dreamy sauce without using dairy! And with the garlicky, lemony flavour of hummus, you’ve got an excellent starting point.
Hummus – I mean, do I even need to say more? Hummus adds a deliciously creamy base without any actual cream. And in case you’re wondering, it doesn’t really taste like hummus at all. Just a creamy, garlicky sauce. Pasta – I used gluten-free pasta here, but you can use any pasta that you have on hand. Pasta water – This starchy and salted water is great for thinning out your sauce and making it smoother. Spinach (or any of your favourite greens) – You can add way more if you want, but greens add a nice hint of freshness. Sun-dried tomatoes (and any other sautéed veggies you want to add here) – I love love love sun-dried tomato hummus, so that’s what I was going for with this. Salt and pepper to taste – you can also add any additional seasonings here!
