One-Pan Tomato Chickpea Skillet
To make this recipe, I used canned chickpeas (garbanzo beans), just to make things quicker and easier. If you prefer, you can use dried chickpeas. Just soak them overnight in plenty of water and then simmer the following day for 1 to 2 hours or until tender.

For the tomato sauce, I used canned tomato sauce. Which is very similar to passata. If you see your tomato sauce is too acidic, just add in some sugar, baking soda or even a dash of cinnamon powder. As for the spinach, I used fresh bagged spinach. You can also use frozen. Just thaw out and pat dry.
