Step-by-Step Instructions for Avocado Ranch Pasta Salad
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Rinse and drain the chickpeas, then toss with olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, cumin, salt, and pepper. Spread on a parchment-lined baking sheet and roast for 20-25 minutes until golden and crispy.
- While the chickpeas are roasting, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add pasta and cook according to package instructions (8-10 minutes) until al dente. Drain and rinse under cold water.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together vegan mayo, tahini, garlic powder, onion powder, cilantro, and season with salt and pepper. Refrigerate until ready to assemble.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked pasta with the ranch dressing, tossing until coated. Add chopped romaine, halved cherry tomatoes, and cilantro, tossing until evenly mixed.
- Chill for 45 minutes to enhance flavors, if desired. Just before serving, fold in the diced avocado and top with crispy chickpeas.
