Spanish Chickpea Stew Recipe Card

Spanish Chickpea Stew

This Spanish chickpea stew is so easy to make and it is vegetarian-friendly. All you need is one pot and 30 minutes. If you don't like zucchini, parsnips are a great alternative. I use tomato puree in place of passata. This stew will warm your belly on those cold winter days.
