Pasta with Peas

What you will need:
2 cans Chickpeas drained
2 cups defrosted peas
1 can diced tomatoes (14 oz) **DRAINED**
1 lb Spaghetti
3/4 cup broth
1/2 teaspoon red pepper
4 cloves diced garlic
olive oil
flat leaf parsley to top
Salt and pepper to taste

OK some people hate chickpeas but I have to recommend this it is not overly Chickpeaish but it is really delicious and almost Creamy. This is adapted from a Rachel Ray recipe. It is a really hit with Freddie he loves it. It is good warm or cold as well. I would suggest it as an alternative to pasta salad.

Coarsely chop 1 can Chickpeas in food processor or blender.Heat oil in pan. Add garlic and red pepper to pan along with chopped chickpeas. Cook for about 2 minutes. Add broth whole Chickpeas, peas, and diced tomatoes. Cook down about 1 minute. Mix well with pasta and top with parsley. Add a little cheese if you want.
