    Tomato and Chickpea Pasta


    1 tin of chopped tomatoes--410gm--14oz--2 cups or use fresh skinned tomatoes
    2 large onions diced
    2 garlic cloves chopped
    4 oz--1/2 cup--100gm of bacon, plain or I prefer smoked, cut into small pieces
    1 cup--4 oz--100gm sliced mushrooms
    1 tin of chickpeas-2 cups--14 oz--410gm
    olive oil
    dried oregano
    salt and pepper to taste
    Pasta such as macaroni 2 cups--8oz--200gm, this does for 2 but alter to suit your appetites

    Recipe




    Heat the olive oil and fry the onions (do not brown), add the bacon and garlic, cook for a few minutes. Add the mushrooms , stir and cook for about 4 minutes. Add the tin of tomatoes, the tin of chickpeas and oregano, add the salt and pepper, taste and stir.

    Now cover and simmer for about 10 minutes. I like the pasta sauce to be dry but you may like it more runny, add water according to your preference.
