Instructions
- Brown Sausage: Add vegan sausage to a large skillet and cook until browned.
- Assemble: Add cooked sausage to your slow cooker, along with broth, cubed potatoes, chickpeas, sun-dried tomatoes, garlic, and spices. Give it a good stir, then cover and cook on high for 2 to 3 hours or on low for 6 to 8 hours.

Cup of Yum
Notes
- To make this soup spicier, increase the amount of crushed red pepper flakes or add a dash of hot sauce. Taste as you go to prevent it from becoming overly spicy!
- If you prefer a thicker broth, you can mash some of the chickpeas and potatoes with a fork or potato masher after simmering.
- You can keep leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3-4 days. (This dish actually tastes better the next day as the flavors continue to meld.)
- If you're meal prepping a big batch of this Tuscan chickpea soup, freeze portions in containers for up to 3 months. Thaw them individually in the fridge overnight, then warm on the stovetop over low.
