How I Make Hummus Pasta

This year’s Lent is coming to an end. The period of fasting and abstinence from meat is also ending.

I may not be an active Christian but it is also good to have a pescetarian practice during the Holy Week and Lenten season. After all, we take a break from eating meat, not just to take part in the Catholic fasting and abstinence, but also to take a rest from these fat, sodium and unwanted chemicals for bad cholesterol.

Therefore, I made another bowl of hummus, just like last year, to help me create and flavor my vegan dishes. So for the last day of Lent, I cooked Hummus Pasta, which is a proof that vegan dishes aren’t always boring.

1. Prepare all the ingredients needed.

• 1/2 kilo linguine pasta
