plant-based convenient veggie & hummus pasta: your go-to quick meal
if you’re looking for a meal that’s both satisfying and low-effort, this plant-based convenient veggie & hummus pasta is perfect for you!!
it’s the kind of dish that you can throw together without much thought, yet it delivers on taste, texture, and nutrition.
taste and texture
this pasta dish has a rich, creamy flavor thanks to the hummus, which coats every bite with a smooth, savory sauce.
the roasted tomatoes and zucchini add a touch of sweetness and a slight tang, while the chickpeas bring a hearty, nutty taste that complements the veggies perfectly.
the pasta, of course, is the perfect base, offering a satisfying chew and substance to every forkful.

convenience at its best
what makes this dish so appealing is how easy it is to prepare.
all you need is a handful of ingredients and one baking tray.
just toss the veggies and chickpeas with some simple seasonings, roast them in the oven, then mix everything together with your favorite hummus.
it’s a one-pan wonder that requires minimal effort and hardly any cleanup.
whether you’re tired, short on time, or just don’t feel like cooking, this recipe has you covered.
nutritional benefits
this pasta is not just convenient—it’s also packed with nutrients.
the protein pasta provides a solid base of plant-based protein to keep you full and energized. we love chickpea, lentil and quinoa based pastas!
the chickpeas add even more protein and fiber, which are essential for digestion and sustained energy.
zucchini and tomatoes are rich in vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants, helping to support your overall health.
the hummus, made from chickpeas and tahini, adds healthy fats and even more protein, making this dish a well-rounded meal.

add-in options and substitutions
this recipe is super versatile, so feel free to customize it to your taste.
if you have other veggies on hand, like bell peppers, spinach, or mushrooms, toss them in with the tomatoes and zucchini.
for extra protein, you could add some tofu or tempeh.
if you want a bit more spice, sprinkle in some red pepper flakes or a dash of hot sauce.
as for the hummus, any flavor or brand will work, so try roasted red pepper, garlic, or even a spicy variety to mix things up.
if you don’t have hummus, you could substitute it with a creamy tahini sauce or even a cashew cream.

storage tips
if you have leftovers, this pasta stores beautifully.
just pop it into an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 4 days.
to reheat, you can warm it up in the microwave or on the stovetop with a splash of veggie broth or water to keep it from drying out.
the flavors tend to meld even more after sitting, making the leftovers just as delicious.
