Pasta for the dinner, always makes me feel guilty as it loaded with carbs. Carbs are good for the children if they accompany with other important nutrients.

Chickpeas are one such ingredient that provides nutrients which are the basic necessity for building up muscles. Children ignore it when they are served with chickpeas alone.

But they highly appreciate and welcome these types of fusion foods.

The preparations process is very simple like counting the single-digit numbers. Olives and the chickpeas are the best combos forever. The creaminess of the chickpeas and the sharp taste of the olives makes this Spicy chickpea pasta wonderful.
