Pasta With Chickpea Sauce image

This recipe was adapted from a recipe in Jane Brody's "Good Food Book." I made some changes and additions to make it more in keeping with a Nutritarian eating style. This is good with or without the pasta. You can reduce prep time by using jarred garlic, frozen onions and mushrooms.
