Instructions: Spelt pasta salad with chickpeas and green olives
For this recipe I used giant spelt fusilli made by Bartolini.
Cook your pasta following the instructions on the box, drain, add a drop of olive oil, stir and let it cool down.
Combine previously drained chickpeas, chopped celery stalk, sliced green olives, chopped parsley leaves and chives or spring onion (green parts only).
Mix olive oil with apple cider vinegar, a pinch of salt and pepper. Add prepared mix and pasta into the olives and stir, then add tlemon zest and stir again.
Leave your spelt pasta salad in the refrigerator for half an hour to let the flavours blend then serve.
