Vegan Hummus Pasta Salad

This Vegan Hummus Pasta Salad is a rich and creamy Mediterranean-inspired recipe. Protein-rich lentil pasta and fresh veggies get coated in your favorite hummus. It’s perfect for a quick weeknight dinner and meal prep approved!

As the weather gets warmer I start to gravitate towards more cooler dishes. And while salads are super refreshing, I love a great vegan pasta salad recipe. Hence, why I created this Vegan Hummus Pasta Salad. While you can enjoy this recipe warm, I think it’s best served chilled, to recover from a hot summer day.

The main player of this Mediterranean-inspired dish is obviously the hummus. You can certainly use homemade hummus, but I opted to use store bought. For this specific recipe, I highly recommend using Hope Foods Original Hummus. Before I get into the details, this is not a sponsored post, though I wish it were.

Hope Foods Original Hummus is made with real ingredients and there is nothing bad in it. Several hummus brands and flavors on the market are full of nonsense from the oils to the additives, so quality matters! Especially when you’re putting it into your body. So be sure to check it out and grab some prior to making this Vegan Hummus Pasta Salad recipe.

Whether you’re on the hunt for a quick weeknight dinner, nutritious meal prep option, or the perfect summer recipe, this healthy vegan pasta has got you covered!
