1 (14 1/2 ounce) can diced tomatoes, undrained |

1 (15 1/2 ounce) can garbanzo beans, drained and rinsed (chickpeas) |
1 (10 ounce) package frozen spinach |
2 tablespoons olive oil |
salt & pepper, to taste |
parmesan cheese (optional) |
Directions:
1. Remove casings from sausages.
2. In a large sauce pot heat olive oil.
3. Add sausage, crumble and cook until no longer pink, drain.
4. In the same pot, add chichen stock and tomatoes.
