Steps:
- Drain the chickpeas, reserving the liquid it came in separately.
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and boil the spaghetti for 2-3 minutes less than what the package directions say.
- Heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat and add the olive oil and garlic. Saute until the garlic is fragrant and cooked through.
- Add the chili flakes and swirl it around with the garlic and olive oil for a few seconds.
- Add the tomatoes and saute until they start losing their shape, and they are no longer watery.
- Add the chickpeas, tomato puree, and salt.
- When the pasta is 2-3 minutes shy of being done, drain it and add it to the chickpea sauce. Finish cooking the pasta in the sauce until it is done to your liking. If the sauce starts gets too thick, add some of the chickpea liquid in to thin it out.
- Finish the pasta by tossing in the plant-based parmesan cheese.

Steps:
- In a large Dutch oven, heat oil over medium heat until shimmering. Add garlic and rosemary, season lightly with salt, and cook, stirring frequently, until garlic softens and turns golden, about 5 minutes. Add pepper flakes and continue to cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add tomato paste and cook until tomato paste is fragrant and turns dark brick red, about 1 minute.
- Stir in wine, scraping up any browned bits with a wooden spoon. Bring to a simmer, and cook until wine has emulsified with olive oil and mixture is slightly reduced, about 2 minutes.
- If using cooked dry chickpeas: Stir in 1 cup (170g) chickpeas and 1 cup (240ml) chickpea cooking liquid. Using a potato masher or wooden spoon, mash chickpeas against the sides and bottom of the pot until completely broken down. Stir in the rest of the chickpeas and remaining 3 cups (710ml) cooking liquid (supplementing with stock or water as needed to reach 3 cups), and black pepper. Season with salt to taste. Proceed to Step 4. If using canned chickpeas: Remove Dutch oven from heat; remove and discard rosemary sprig. Add 1 cup (170g) chickpeas and 1 cup (240ml) stock, and using an immersion blender, blend mixture until smooth, 1 to 2 minutes. (If you do not have a handheld immersion blender, transfer mixture to blender and blend until smooth, about 1 minute. Pour mixture back into Dutch oven.) Stir in remaining 2 cups (340ml) of chickpeas, 3 cups (710ml) stock, and black pepper. Season with salt to taste.
- Bring chickpea mixture to a boil over medium-high heat. Stir in pasta and cook, stirring frequently, until pasta is just shy of al dente (1 to 2 minutes less than the package directs, as the pasta will continue to cook off-heat), and liquid is reduced to a consistency that falls between soupy and saucy. Adjust consistency as needed with additional water, stock, or chickpea cooking liquid, keeping in mind that liquid will tighten up as it cools due to starch from the chickpeas.
- Remove from heat, add cheese, and stir rapidly to incorporate. Season with salt to taste. Divide between individual serving bowls (for the dried chickpea version, look out for the garlic cloves and rosemary sprig; remove and discard them), and drizzle each serving with olive oil. Serve, passing extra grated cheese at the table.

PASTA WITH SPINACH AND CHICKPEAS
This is a home-style Italian favorite at my house. It is also very good with northern white beans instead of the chickpeas, and any sort of strand pasta works well. Serve with a leafy green salad and crusty Italian bread. If you like spicy food, stir in 1/2 to 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes towards the end.

LEMONY PASTA WITH CHICKPEAS AND PARSLEY
You can used either canned or home-cooked chickpeas in this take on the classic Italian dish pasta con ceci, which is an excellent, nutritious, quick-cooking dinner. But even more appealing is the way the soft earthiness of the chickpeas plays off the al dente pasta, coating it like a rich sauce but without a lot of fat. The whole dish is zipped up with some lemon, garlic and red pepper flakes.

Steps:
- Bring a large pot of heavily salted water to a boil. Add fusilli and cook until it is just shy of al dente. (It should be slightly underdone to your taste because you'll finish cooking it in the sauce.) Drain well.
- While the pasta is cooking, prepare the chickpea sauce: Place chickpeas in a large bowl and use a potato masher or a fork to lightly mash them; they should be about half-crushed.
- Heat oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium heat. Add garlic cloves and fry until they are golden brown, about 2 minutes. Stir in onions, rosemary, red pepper flakes and a pinch of salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until onions are soft, about 10 minutes. Then stir in chickpeas and the cooking liquid, stock or water. Bring to a simmer and cook gently until most of the liquid has evaporated, about 5 minutes.
- Stir in pasta and parsley, and cook until the pasta has finished cooking and is coated in the sauce, 1 to 2 minutes. Quickly toss in cheese, butter, lemon zest, black pepper to taste and salt if needed. Drizzle with olive oil and shower with additional cheese before serving.

PASTA WITH CHICKPEAS
This recipe came from "Moosewood Restaurant Low-Fat Favorites" cookbook. The ingredients in this recipe are ones we have around all the time (and love!). We made it for dinner tonight, and it exceeded our expectations. YUM! If you like these ingredients, then I think you'll love it too. One of the neat things is that pureeing the chickpeas gives the sauce a wonderful, creamy texture.

Steps:
- Heat the oil in a well-seasoned skillet or nonstick saucepan (I used a dutch oven, so I could puree the sauce right in the pan using my hand blender), and saute the onions, garlic and rosemary on low eat until the onions are soft - about 10 minutes.
- Add the tomatoes and half of the chickpeas and cook for another 10 minutes.
- Remove the rosemary springs and discard. If you have a hand blender, puree the mixture until smooth. Otherwise, use a blender. Be careful not to burn yourself.
- Return the sauce to the pan (if you'd removed it for blending), add the remaining chickpeas, and add salt and pepper to taste.
- Meanwhile, cook the pasta.
- The original recipe suggests tossing the pasta and sauce together for serving, but we served them separately.
- Pass the feta and chopped tomatoes (if desired) at the table.

Tips:
- Use canned chickpeas: Canned chickpeas are a quick and easy way to add protein and fiber to your pasta dish. If you're using dried chickpeas, be sure to soak them overnight before cooking.

- Add vegetables: Vegetables are a great way to add color, flavor, and nutrients to your pasta dish. Some good options include broccoli, spinach, zucchini, and mushrooms.
- Use a flavorful sauce: The sauce is what really brings the dish together. Be sure to use a sauce that you enjoy the taste of. Some good options include tomato sauce, pesto, or Alfredo sauce.
- Garnish with fresh herbs: Fresh herbs add a pop of color and flavor to your pasta dish. Some good options include basil, parsley, and oregano.
Conclusion:
Spaghetti with garbanzo beans is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. With a few simple ingredients, you can create a flavorful and satisfying dish that the whole family will enjoy.
