Instructions
If serving with homemade breadsticks - The total breadstick recipe takes about an hour so begin with these and prepare the soup and chickpeas while you wait on the breadsticks. If serving with homemade vegan biscuits, this recipe only takes about 20 minutes so you can bake them as your soup simmers.
Bring a medium saucepan with 1 tablespoon olive oil to medium heat. Once warm, add garlic and cook until it sizzles (about 2 min)
Once the garlic is sizzling, add the tomato sauce and diced tomatoes. Then, stir in the soup spices. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 20 minutes.
While the soup is simmering, bring a small or medium skillet with olive oil to medium heat. Once warm, add the chickpeas and spices. Cook, stirring often, until the chickpeas are golden (about 5-7 minutes).
Once the soup has simmered for 20 minutes, stir in the coconut milk and serve warm with chickpeas and breadsticks.
