Yum! This Chickpea Tomato Soup is cheap, easy to make and full of flavour.
It’s a great budget meal – made with ingredients that most people would already have in the cupboard – a couple of tins of tomato and a tin of chickpeas, some onions, garlic and a few other things! If you’re lucky you might also have the herbs growing in your garden.
We used our Kajo Veggie Stock to make this. If you feel inclined to make your own stock, check out the recipe here. Otherwise use any vegan stock.
This has a little kick to it because of the chillies. But if you don’t like spice, then don’t put them in. If you do like spice… you know what to do! 😉
When you drain the chickpeas – keep the brine! You can make all sorts of awesome things with it – including our Cajun Spiced Tofu, Vegan Fish Fingers, and Coconut Raspberry Slice! Did you know that chickpeas help to control blood sugar levels and can aid weight loss? I didn’t! Read more about the benefits of chickpeas here.
This Chickpea Tomato Soup would be perfectly yummy to eat cold too! If you make this soup, please let us know, and don’t forget to share this recipe with your family and friends!
