Best 6 Garbanzo Tomato Pasta Soup Recipes

TOMATO SOUP WITH CHICKPEAS AND PASTA RECIPE

Steps:

• Place a large saucepan (use one that has a tight-fitting lid) over medium heat. Add oil. When oil begins to shimmer, stir in garlic, paprika, and tomato paste. Cook, until the garlic is fragrant, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Pour vegetable stock and crushed tomatoes over the aromatics. Bring to a simmer, stirring frequently.
• When the liquids are simmering, stir in the vinegar, sugar, salt, chickpeas, and pasta. Cover the pot with a lid and let everything simmer until the pasta is tender, 8 to 15 minutes.
• Ladle soup into bowls and top with a drizzle of olive oil, cheese, and black pepper.

PASTA AND GARBANZO BEAN SOUP

Steps:

• Heat olive oil in heavy large saucepan over medium heat. Add onion and sauté until translucent, about 4 minutes. Add garlic, rosemary and sage and continue cooking 1 minute. Mix in tomatoes and cook until slightly thickened, stirring occasionally, about 10 minutes. Add broth and garbanzo beans and simmer 5 minutes. Puree soup in blender or processor. Return soup to saucepan and bring to boil. Stir in orzo and cook until orzo is just tender but still firm to bite. Season soup to taste with salt and pepper. Ladle soup into bowls. Garnish with parsley and serve, passing Parmesan cheese separately.

PASTA WITH GARBANZO BEANS

Steps:

• Heat 1 tablespoon oil in heavy large saucepan over medium heat. Add onion, celery, garlic and bay leaf; sauté until onion is golden and tender, about 7 minutes. Add 3 1/4 cups broth, garbanzo beans, tomato paste and crushed red pepper. Bring to boil. Add macaroni; reduce heat to medium and boil gently until macaroni is very tender, adding more broth by 1/4 cupfuls if mixture is dry, about 15 minutes (mixture will be thick but some broth should remain). Season with salt and pepper. Discard bay leaf. Stir in parsley and 1 tablespoon oil.
• Ladle pasta mixture into 4 bowls. Top each serving with 1 tablespoon freshly grated Parmesan cheese.

ORZO & TOMATO SOUP

Steps:

• Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large saucepan. Add the onion and celery and fry for 10-15 mins, or until starting to soften, then add the garlic and cook for 1 min more. Stir in all the other ingredients, except for the pesto and remaining oil, and bring to the boil.
• Reduce the heat and leave to simmer for 6-8 mins, or until the orzo is tender. Season to taste, then ladle into bowls.
• Stir the remaining oil with the pesto, then drizzle over the soup. Serve with chunks of crusty bread.

PASTA E CECI (ITALIAN PASTA AND CHICKPEA STEW)

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large stock pot or Dutch oven over medium. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened but not taking on any color, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the garlic, rosemary and red-pepper flakes, and cook 1 minute more. Season well with salt and pepper.
• Stir in the tomatoes and the chickpeas, breaking up the tomatoes with the back of a spoon or spatula and smashing about 1/2 cup of the beans.
• Add 3 cups water and bring to a boil over high. Add the pasta and simmer, stirring often to make sure nothing sticks to the bottom of the pan, until the pasta is al dente, about 10 minutes. The water will mostly be absorbed by the pasta, but if you prefer it brothier, you can add 1/2 to 1 cup water and simmer until warmed through, 1 minute more. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
• Add the escarole and stir until wilted. Taste and adjust seasonings accordingly. Ladle into bowls and top with grated cheese and a drizzle of olive oil.
