Spinach and chick peas soup

Here is another soup. As winter is approaching rapidly, I love making soups as they warm you up. This is a typical Portuguese soup I grew up with. Every time I made it here in the U.S. everyone loves it kids included especially if you add some pasta such as macaroni.

INGREDIENTS

2 cans of chick peas
2 bags of frozen spinach
2 soup spoons olive oil
1 clove of minced garlic
1 chopped small onion
1.5 liters of chicken stock

DIRECTIONS

1. In a medium size pot add a soup spoon of olive oil, garlic and onions
   
2. Golden garlic and onions, then add the chick peas and spinach
3. Add the broth and let it simmer for 20 minutes
4. Just before serving add another little bit of olive oil, but do not boil it

SUGGESTIONS

You can eat it as is, or put it in blender to make a cream. Also fantastic is you add some left-over pasta.
