INGREDIENTS

In a small bowl, mix the nonfat Greek yogurt with freshly squeezed lemon juice, lemon zest, and chopped fresh herbs. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Toss the cooked pasta and chickpeas with the lemon herb yogurt sauce until well coated.
Plate the dish and sprinkle with hemp seeds for an added boost of protein and crunch.
