How to Make Spicy Chickpea And Spinach Soup

  1. Heat olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat.
  2. Add chopped onion, minced garlic, rosemary, red pepper flakes, and salt. Cook and stir for about 5 minutes, until onion softens.
  3. Add rinsed chickpeas, crushed tomatoes, and water to the saucepan.
  4. Bring the mixture to a boil.
  5. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes.
  6. Carefully use an immersion blender (or transfer to a regular blender in batches) to partially puree the soup. Leave some texture for a heartier feel.
  7. Add the chopped spinach to the soup.
  8. Return to a simmer and cook for another 10 minutes, or until spinach is wilted.
  9. Season with additional salt and pepper to taste.
  10. Serve hot with crusty bread.
