Now a Bean Soup Groupie

My friend Michele over at Oswego Tea made the most enticing looking Tuscan Chicpea soup. I am not sure what made me drool so much, whether it was the photography or the idea of a soup made from chickpeas and tomatoes. I went to make the soup and realised that my packet of dried chickpeas had been taken over by weevils, yuck! So, the soup remained in my memory but I forgot to buy more chickpeas when I went shopping. On friday night when I was looking over my fav blogs and thinking about making dinner, I just happened to see the Tuscan Chickpea soup again. So I was not able to make her soup exactly, but I instead made a homage. It was awesome.
This is a really easy, hearty, creamy soup that is very filing.
