Chickpea Soup Italian Pasta Recipe

Nice rendition of a universal theme. You can take this in any direction you want. I’ve always used white beans and skipped the pasta. All kinds of meats can be added.

In the past, I’ve added braised lamb chunks, smoked ham hocks, Italian sausage….all delicious. A salad, a loaf of bread.

This recipe is easy to follow, quick to make and tastes amazing!

Instructions

Heat oil in a 6-qt. saucepan over medium-high; add rosemary, celery, carrot, and onion and cook until soft, 8-10 minutes. Add stock and chickpeas; simmer 5 minutes.
