Instructions

Prepare the pasta al dente according to directions. Strain and let the noodles cool slightly (you want them to be almost room temperature when tossing them in the dressing).
8 oz pasta noodles
Prepare the dressing while the pasta is cooking by mixing together the greek yogurt, lemon juice, dill, and sea salt in a cup or jar.
⅔ cup greek yogurt, 1 lemon, 4 tablespoon dill, ½ teaspoon sea salt
In a large mixing bowl, add the red onion, red bell pepper, cucumbers, and chickpeas (make sure to drain and rinse them). Pour the dressing over top and gently toss to combine
¼ cup red onion, 1 red bell pepper, 1 cucumber, 15 oz can chickpeas
Run some cold water over the pasta noodles if needed to loosen them up. Add the noodles to the bowl with the dressing and toss well to coat.
Serve cold with extra dill on top, if desired, and enjoy!

Notes

Storing : Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week. When ready to enjoy, add a splash of warm water and gently toss the noodles to loosen up the yogurt dressing.
