Instructions
1 Roast garlic by mixing with a splash of veggie broth and some salt. Wrap in tin foil , and/or parchment and roast at 400°F (200°C) degrees for 20-25 minutes until garlic is browning and looks caramelized. 2 Chop onions. Pulse chickpeas in a food processor until coarsely chopped, only 2-3 times. You can also crush them a bit with your hands if you prefer. 3 Saute onions and ¼ teaspoon salt in a pan over medium heat until they begin to brown and get fragrant. Add chickpeas and tomato paste and sauté a few more minutes. 4 Add crushed tomatoes and spices and mix again for a few minutes. Add spinach and rest of salt, cover and cook about 10 minutes. Mix to make it saucy. It will be thick versus a thinner marinara type of sauce. 5 Meanwhile cook your penne according to package directions and make Hemp Almond Parmesan. 6 Mix penne and sauce, then serve topped with roasted garlic and Hemp Almond Parmesan.View original recipe
