Servings: persons

2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 onion, finely chopped
4 garlic cloves, finely chopped
1 red chili pepper, finely chopped (Fresno or Holland)
2 sprigs fresh rosemary, leaves picked and finely chopped
1 bay leaf
salt & freshly ground black pepper, to taste
1 (28 ounce) can chickpeas, rinsed and drained (garbanzo beans)
1 1/2 cups vegetable stock
1 (28 ounce) can san marzano tomatoes, whole
1 lb whole wheat penne
vegan parmesan cheese, for serving (My Vegan Parmesan)
flat leaf parsley, finely chopped, for serving

1
Heat 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil in a large skillet, add the onions, garlic, Fresno chile, rosemary, bay leaf, salt, and pepper and cook to soften, 7 to 8 minutes.
2
Meanwhile, add about 2/3 of the chickpeas to a food processor, then quick-pulse into fine bits.
3
Add the finely chopped chickpeas and remaining whole chickpeas to the pan and heat through.
4
Stir in the stock and tomatoes. Break up the whole tomatoes and simmer the sauce to thicken a little.
5
Bring water to boil for pasta, salt the water and cook to al dente.
6
Reserve a cup of starchy pasta water just before draining, just in case.
7
Drain the pasta and place back in the hot pot and toss with the sauce and as much starchy water as you need to combine. When I made this, I did NOT need to add any extra pasta water to make the sauce because it was fine as is.
8
Sprinkle pasta with fresh parsley, and top with some vegan parmesan (recipe #413778). ENJOY!
