Chickpea Pasta Salad image

This is a different and very tasty salad. I have even added cooked chicken or beef to the mixture. Prep time does not include boiling the pasta and cooking time is chilling time. Adjust all amounts to taste.

This salad is a bit too heavy on the chickpeas for my taste. I would add more vegetables.

This salad is a bit too bland for my taste. I would add some more herbs or spices.

I'm not a fan of the dressing in this recipe. I prefer a more tangy dressing.

This salad is a great make-ahead meal. I made it the night before and it was even better the next day.

I'm not a huge fan of chickpeas, but I really enjoyed this salad. The dressing is light and flavorful, and the chickpeas are perfectly cooked.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover chickpeas. I had some leftover from making hummus and this was the perfect way to use them up.

I made this salad for a potluck and it was a hit! Everyone loved it. I especially liked the addition of the feta cheese and kalamata olives.
