Vegan Garlic Chickpea Soup

Directions

  1. Pour the cans of chickpeas with their liquid into a blender and purée until smooth.
  2. Heat the olive oil in a pot over medium heat, add the garlic and sauté for about 1 minute, or just until it's fragrant and smells good.
  3. Add the chickpeas, the cubed potato, herbs, and some freshly cracked pepper, and stir well.
  4. Add broth and stir again.
  5. Cover the pot with a lid, heat on medium-high until boiling then reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer for 25-30 minutes. Stir occasionally.
  6. Let the soup cool and then blend with an immersion blender until creamy and smooth.
  7. Add salt and more pepper to taste.

Bon appetite.
