Easy Chickpea and Spinach Soup! A.K.A “Swamp Soup”

 

I am not personally a fan of soup, nor a fan of chickpeas or spinach….BUT I love this soup!
My mother and aunt have been making it for years and I have finally decided to make it at home for my boys. Since most kids hate veggies, I pureed theirs to look like what we like to call ‘Swamp Soup.’ Later I realized they liked the soup with the ‘chunks’ too…either way, this is a hearty and delicious soup the whole family can enjoy! PLUS it is the perfect meal when you are pressed for time or ingredients😉

1 Handful of Spinach (Frozen or Fresh) Finely Chopped
