Chickapea, the organic pasta brand known for its legume-based products, has announced a significant retail expansion on the West Coast. On Thursday, February 5, 2026, the company confirmed the launch of a limited-time exclusive One Pot Meals 3-pack at Costco warehouses across the Los Angeles region and Hawaii.
The rollout, which began hitting shelves on February 2, features the brand’s best-selling Creamy Garlic flavor bundled in a family-size format. This marks the first time Chickapea’s “One Pot” line has been available as a rotation item in the Los Angeles Costco region.
A Better-For-You “Mac & Cheese”
The new 3-pack offering is designed to compete with traditional boxed macaroni and cheese but with a nutritional upgrade. The meals utilize Chickapea’s signature pasta made from only chickpeas and yellow peas.
According to the press release, key product attributes include:
- High Protein: 15 grams of protein per serving.
- Fiber Rich: 4 grams of fiber per serving.
- Dietary Friendly: Certified gluten-free and kosher.
- Convenience: Ready in under 12 minutes; requires only milk and optional butter.
“Costco shoppers care deeply about value, quality and feeding their families well, which makes this launch especially meaningful,” said Shelby Taylor, Founder and CEO of Chickapea. “Our One Pot Meals are designed for real life and appeal to consumers seeking healthier choices without sacrificing taste, texture or convenience.”
Why It Matters
This launch represents a strategic scaling for Chickapea following a successful “roadshow” test in the Los Angeles market last year. By moving from a temporary pop-up presence to a stocked item (even for a limited time), the brand is validating the demand for high-protein and gluten-free comfort foods in the warehouse club channel.
For retail buyers and distributors, the move signals the growing viability of “value-added” legume pastas—which include sauce packets—over standalone dry pasta. It addresses the consumer need for convenience (the “one pot” claim) while maintaining a clean label. The price point of $10.69 for a bulk 3-pack also positions it competitively against other premium meal kits.
