Red Pepper, Chickpea and Tomato Soup


You'll need

Jar of cooked red peppers (use one or two peppers from it)
Onion x 1
Garlic x 2 pieces (or whatever you want)
Large tin of chickpeas
Large tin of crushed tomatoes
4 cups of chicken stock
Cumin (or whatever herb you like, I love cumin)
S/P
Fat free sour cream (optional)

* Fry onion
* Add heaped teaspoon of cumin
* Add chickpeas, stock, canned tomatoes and peppers, S/P
* Cook for 10 minutes or 1 hr - depends on how long you have
* Get immersion blender (or regular blender) and blend ingredients until smooth
* To serve, add some sour cream or a dash of olive oil on the top.

My photo is rubbish but this is delicious. I think I am going to go have a bowl now.
