This is a warm, spicy stew with chickpeas, tomatoes, and olives. It's like a hug in a bowl! We use yummy things like garlic and a special tomato sauce to make it taste really good. It's perfect for dinner and makes enough for four people.

1 cup of pitted Kalamata olives, halved
1 tsp of red pepper flakes

2 tbsp of tomato paste
2 tbsp of capers, rinsed
1 x (800 g) can of crushed tomatoes
