Im always looking for new ways to get my family to eat more veggies, they love this one, very fresh tasting and filling. Could be adapted for the crock pot. Serve over spagetti.

Ingredients

1 (19 ounce) can chickpeas, drained and rinsed
2 (28 ounce) cans plum tomatoes
1 large onion, chopped
4 garlic cloves
1 teaspoon olive oil
1 cup dry red wine
1 tablespoon tomato paste
1/2 lb fresh mushrooms, sliced
1 large zucchini, chopped (I like to slice in rounds, then in half again)
1/2 cup fresh parsley
1/4 cup fresh basil
1/4 cup fresh oregano
1 carrot, grated
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 teaspoon dried hot red chilies

Steps:

In large pot saute the onion in olive oil until translucent then add garlic.
Run the chickpeas and tomatoes through a blender or food processor until they are finely chopped, but not smooth.
Add all the ingredients to the pot, and simmer uncovered for 45 minutes, stirring occasionally.
When I don't have fresh I exchange 1/4 cup fresh basil= 4 tsp dried. 1/4 cup fresh oregano = 1 tablespoon dried. 1/2 cup parsley = 2tsp dried.
