Ingredients
- For pasta salad
- 2 medium zucchini, diced
- 1 medium yellow squash, diced
- 2 red bell peppers, diced
- 1 pint grape tomatoes, halved
- 1–15 ounce can chickpeas, drained and rinsed
- 2 garlic cloves, in their skins
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 8 ounces chickpea pasta (rotini, gemelli or penne)
- 2 scallions, thinly sliced
- 1 tablespoon minced chives
- 1/4 cup shaved parmesan for serving

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
