3. Cook the pasta: While the vegetables are cooking, boil a small pot of water, add a pinch of salt and the chickpea pasta, cook for 8-10 minutes until al dente. Drain and reserve 1 tbsp of pasta water for the sauce.
4. Make the sauce & combine: In a bowl, mix 0.5 tbsp olive oil, lemon juice, dried thyme, salt, black pepper, and the reserved pasta water. Unplug the Qvin slow cooker (per the tip), add the cooked pasta to the slow cooker with the vegetables, pour in the sauce, and toss well.
