Step 1

Cooking pasta according to package directions and let cool.  I like to mix with a small amount of olive oil or rinse under cold water so it doesn’t all stick together while cooling.

Step 2

Add pasta to a large bowl.  Next, add the chickpeas and all the vegetables, including the basil.

Step 3

Add all dressing ingredients to a small bowl or jar and mix until combined.  Pour desired amount of dressing over pasta salad and mix until combined.  Enjoy immediately or refrigerator up to 3 days.
