The pantry is getting bare, and I'm going to have to suck it up and go to the supermarket soon, but not yet.
I had some leftover penne - because I still have not gotten used to cooking pasta for one and made way too much.
I also had a can of chickpeas.
On a whim, I simmered the chickpeas with some oregano, garlic and basil. Then I swirled in some apple cider vinegar, and poured the whole thing over my cold penne.
I guess you'd call it a pasta salad. I'll just call it...
DELICIOUS!
Caveat - I like the taste of apple cider vinegar so this totally worked for me. If you don't like it, you might prefer to substitute some other kind of dressing.
