8 OZ Italian Trottole Pasta. Any favorite pasta will do.

15 OZ of Garbanzo Beans (1 Can)

Instructions
In a medium skillet, add the 8 OZ of water. Medium-low heat. Slice the carrots thin and add. Slice onions and add. Simmer to soften the carrots. Let the water cook down. Add the vegetable broth. Add the pasta. No need to cook pasta separately. Once the pasta is softened, add the garbanzo beans. Slice the sausages ¼” thick and add. Cover and simmer for 3 minutes on low heat. Add the bok choy. Simmer for 1 minute covered. Always feel free to customize. Consider adding a pinch of salt and pepper for flavor. Spinach leaves add great flavor and color. Cherry tomatoes are fun.
