Vegan Vittles: Split Chickpea Soup

January 15, 2011 Leave a Comment

This is a recipe my fiance whipped up from veggies in our fridge. According to my friends at Wedding Craft Party 2.0, this soup is to die for. I concur.

Split Chickpea Soup Ingredients

Two onions, finely chopped.
Three carrots finely chopped.
two bell peppers (one red, one yellow) finely chopped.
The cooked equivalent of about half a pound of dried split chickpeas.
28 oz can of Tomato sauce
two 28 oz cans filled with water.
Maybe 5 or 6 tablespoons of curry powder, but that is just a guess.
Another tablespoon or so of turmeric.
salt & pepper

Instructions

Cook the first three vegetables in a big soup pot with a bunch of hot olive oil.
Keep the lid on, so they get nice and soft.
Once they’ve gotten soft, but before the start to brown, put in the tomato sauce and water.
Add the beans and seasonings. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer, and let it cook down until it is at the desired consistency.
Oh, and I tossed in a chopped fresh tomato at the end, but that was just because I wanted to get rid of it.
Thanks, fiance, for the recipe!

Working on a sample for some upcoming videos. It’s an overcast day with intermittent sunshine & I have a scruffy little sidecar. 🐶 Can’t complain!

Peg boards and craft room organization go together Peg boards and craft room organization go together like peanut butter and jelly. So, as you can see, do latch hook tools and screwdriver organizers! 🪛 
.
I think this trick translates to any tool with a thick handle, so leather working tools, punch needles, print making tools, etc. should work! What other tools am I, a needlecrafter, blanking on right now?

Pegboard storage is my favorite for craft supplies Pegboard storage is my favorite for craft supplies, so getting a few hung in my new studio has been a priority. Here’s my first attempt. 🔨 
.
Details: This pegboard panel is for organizing my knitting needles, latch hook tools, sewing thread, etc. It doesn’t need to hold much weight, so I didn’t anchor this into a stud - just used basic drywall anchors. I’ve also got a set of two 2’x4’ panels for another spot in my studio, and those will need a stud/more than 3 drywall anchors. Wish me luck!

June’s big ears can get cold in winter, so I’m improvising a doggie ear warmer/hood for her. What are the odds she tries to shred it immediately when it’s done?
