Pasta Ceci

Take a can or two or chickpeas (or if you use them fresh, then cook a
pint or two) and put them with some of the water into a big heavy pan.
Add a cup or so of minced parsley, and garlic to taste (really can't
use too much in this dish), some salt and some pepper. Bring to a boil
and let it cook this way for about 10 minutes or so. Then, reduce the
heat and let it simmer for a half hour or so. At this point, (you mauy
want to add some more water) you should use something to mash the
beans a little...mash half or so, so that the beans that mash blend
with the liquid to for a thick sauce.

Cook some pasta...egg noodles are best, or fusili or ditalis...
something like that. Pour the sauce in with the noodles and mix them
up real well, and let it sit covered for 10 or 15 minutes and then
serve.

The sauce should be pretty thick, and should stick to the pasta
well. A tasty and simple dish. Enjoy...
