One-Pot Chickpea Stew

Chickpeas may be small, but they carry centuries of history. Once grown in ancient Mediterranean soils and traded across early spice routes, they became a symbol of resourceful cooking turning humble ingredients into hearty meals. Chickpea stew is one of those dishes that proves you don’t need much to create something filling, flavorful, and nutritious.

This version celebrates that tradition with familiar vegetables, warming spices, and the kind of slow-simmered goodness that makes a home smell inviting. Every spoonful feels honest and grounding, the way food is meant to.
