How do you make vegan broccoli and hummus pasta?

Start to bring an oiled and salted pot of water to a boil.

While waiting for it to boil, cut your broccoli florets and stems into bite size pieces.

When water starts to boil, add your stems and cook for a minute. Then, add in the uncooked pasta and broccoli florets. Cook until al dente, about 8 minutes.

While cooking, add the hummus ingredients to a food processor. Blend until smooth, scraping down as necessary.

Before draining the pasta, take 1 cup of water out of it and slowly drizzle it into your food processor to make the hummus more saucy.

Drain pasta completely and toss with the hummus sauce.

Top with salt and pepper if desired.

Optional: add in warmed chickpeas to it.
