  • 1/2 cup sun dried tomatoes chopped

  • 1/2 teaspoon oregano

  • 1/2 teaspoon red chili flakes

  • 1 teaspoon salt

  • 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper

  • (2) 15-ounce cans chickpeas drained and rinsed

  • 1/2 cup vegetable broth

  • 1 tablespoon tomato paste

  • 1 cup vegan cream (any store bought dairy free creamer, full fat coconut milk, another unsweetened plant milk or best of all, homemade cashew cream)

  • 2 cups baby spinach sliced

  • 4-5 fresh basil leaves chopped

  • optional: 1/2 cup grated vegan parmesan cheese

Instructions

  1. In a large sauté pan over low-medium heat, warm the olive oil. Add the garlic and cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring frequently, until fragrant.

  2. Stir in the sun dried tomatoes, oregano, red chili flakes, salt and black pepper. Cook for 1 minute.

  4. Remove from heat and stir in the fresh basil and grated parmesan. Serve immediately with crusty bread for dipping, or on top of cooked rice, pasta or even a baked sweet potato. Enjoy!
