Instructions
- Drain the chickpeas, reserving the liquid it came in separately.
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and boil the spaghetti for 2-3 minutes less than what the package directions say.
- Heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat and add the olive oil and garlic. Saute until the garlic is fragrant and cooked through.
- Add the chili flakes and swirl it around with the garlic and olive oil for a few seconds.
- Add the tomatoes and saute until they start losing their shape, and they are no longer watery.
- Add the chickpeas, tomato puree, and salt.
- When the pasta is 2-3 minutes shy of being done, drain it and add it to the chickpea sauce. Finish cooking the pasta in the sauce until it is done to your liking. If the sauce starts gets too thick, add some of the chickpea liquid in to thin it out.
- Finish the pasta by tossing in the plant-based parmesan cheese.
