Tuscan Chick Pea Pasta Sauce
I'm no cook, but I thought I'd put THE recipe out there that my family loves when I make it. Even my 4 year old licks her plate clean! I found this recipe in The Encyclopedia of Sauces for Your Pasta, by Charles A. Bellissino when I was in college. I adapted it just a little, but it's the best damn pasta ever!
Here's what you need:
2 garlic cloves crushed
1/4 c. olive oil
1 can chick peas(15oz.)
1 c. water
1 tbsp. tomato paste-you can add more or less, depending on your tastes
2 tsp. crushed rosemary
1 tbsp. parsley flakes
salt and pepper to taste
Puree 1/2 the can of chick and their juice in a food processor, leave 1/2 the chick peas whole. Saute the garlic in the olive oil until it browns. Add the chick peas and all the other ingredients and bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 30 mins. Stir occasionally.
That's it!!! Enjoy!
