This colourful, satisfying soup is great for those wanting to cut down on their meat intake, and ticks the gluten- and dairy-free boxes, too. It can be cooked on the hob, or in the oven, slow cooker or pressure cooker. Save the liquid from the tin of chickpeas and whip it up into a deliciously light chocolate mousse for afters.
