ingredients

¹⁄₄ cup extra virgin olive oil
1 medium onion, chopped
3 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
¹⁄₂ carrot, chopped
1 (28 ounce) can tomatoes with juice
1 (17 ounce) can garbanzo beans, rinsed and drained
16 ounces medium pasta shells or 16 ounces elbow macaroni
salt, to taste
¹⁄₄ cup chopped Italian parsley
grated parmigiano-reggiano cheese

directions

Add the oil, onion, garlic, and carrot to a large skillet; cook over low heat; stir/saute for about 10 minutes or until the onion is tender (do not brown).
Add in the tomatoes and garbanzo beans; simmer over low heat for about 20 minutes.
Meanwhile, cook the pasta according to package directions until al dente; ladle out 1 cup of the cooking water and set aside.
Drain the pasta and immediately add to the skillet.
Stir to blend; add in the reserved cooking water as needed for extra moistness (the mixture should be very juicy).
Season to taste with salt.
Ladle into soup bowls; sprinkle with parsley and cheese.
