What You Need:
You don’t need many ingredients for this quick pasta dish. It’s pretty budget-friendly and you can find all of the ingredients in any grocery store!
You need:
- rotini pasta

- roasted pine nuts
- garlic
- basil
As always, you can find the full ingredient list and the recipe instructions in a separate recipe box at the end of this post.
How to Make This Hummus Pasta:
All you need for this recipe is 10 minutes! It’s great when you feel like having a comforting pasta dish, but you don’t have much time to cook.
STEP 1: Cook the pasta according to the instructions on the package.
STEP 2: In the meantime, roast the pine nuts in a large pan without oil. Be careful as they burn rather quickly.
STEP 3: Then, heat some oil in the same pan. Add the garlic and cook for about 2 minutes.
STEP 4: Cut the sun-dried tomatoes into slices. Wash the baby spinach. Add both to the garlic and cook for another 2 minutes or until the spinach wilts.
STEP 5: Add the cooked pasta. Stir in the hummus and season with salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes. Sprinkle with chopped basil. Enjoy!
Recipe Notes:
- Do you want to make this pasta dish gluten-free? Then I recommend using brown rice pasta instead. I usually prefer it over lentil or chickpea pasta as its texture and taste is very similar to regular pasta.
- This pasta dish is also delicious when eaten cold. So if you have any leftovers, you could eat them as a pasta salad on the next day.
- I usually use plain hummus, but you could also experiment with flavored hummus if you like. It’s also great with Mexican spiced hummus and black beans instead of sun-dried tomatoes.

So delicious! I’ve been getting bored with the same flavors over and over with my food prep and this was a fantastic change of pace. I will definitely be making this again. Connect time I may even get crazy and caramelize some onion to go in there too! Thank you so much for sharing! 💕
