Ingredients
- 12 ounces ridged or plain penne Coarse salt and ground pepper 1 can (15 ounces) chickpeas, rinsed and drained 1 pint grape or cherry tomatoes, halved 1/2 pint (8 ounces) bocconcini (small fresh mozzarella balls), halved, or 8 ounces fresh mozzarella, cubed 2 tablespoons fresh thyme leaves, plus more for garnish 2 tablespoons olive oil 1 tablespoon white-wine vinegar
Directions
Cook pasta in a large pot of boiling salted water until al dente, according to package instructions. Reserve 1/2 cup pasta water. Add chickpeas to pot; immediately drain pasta mixture, and return to pot.
Add tomatoes, bocconcini, thyme, oil, and vinegar to pasta. Toss, adding reserved pasta water a little at a time to create a thin sauce that coats penne (you may not need all the water). Season with salt and pepper; toss to combine. Serve, garnished with additional thyme.

Martha Stewart Member Rating: Unrated 09/25/2008 wordsnob, thanks, I get it now Martha Stewart Member Rating: Unrated 09/04/2008 I added balsamic vinegar as opposed to white-wine vinegar and the flavor was much better. Martha Stewart Member Rating: Unrated 09/03/2008 Not terribly flavorful. Perhaps with the addition of parmesean cheese it might be better. Pam Martha Stewart Member Rating: Unrated 09/02/2008 Anita: Because that is a link. You'd click it if someone was being inappropriate. Martha Stewart Member Rating: Unrated 09/02/2008 Anitarn: As hard as it is to believe, some people, from time to time, will make political statements or make snide comments on other contributers comments or questions. Martha Stewart Member Rating: Unrated 09/02/2008 I did as Amy did with the garlic and spinich. I did not use mozzerella. I used fresh grated parmesan cheese and topped each serving with more parmesan cheese. It was so good and quick. This is a real keeper. Martha Stewart Member Rating: Unrated 09/02/2008 Why does it always say "report as inappropriate" after each comment? These comments are certainly not inappropriate...... Martha Stewart Member Rating: Unrated 09/02/2008 Fresh Basil instead of thyme. MMMmmmmm! Martha Stewart Member Rating: Unrated 05/19/2008 I sauted some garlic in olive oil, added a little spinach to that. Then stirred into the pasta as in step 2 above. I didn't use any vinegar. It was absolutely delicious! Martha Stewart Member Rating: Unrated 03/19/2008 I included arugula which gave a much needed depth of flavor. Martha Stewart Member Rating: Unrated 03/17/2008 I plan to add canallini beans instead of chick peas, but it sounds great.Martha Stewart Member
