Chickpeas and Charred Tomato Pasta

We whoopsied and waited too long to use the tomatoes we got from the farmer's market on Saturday - they ended up being gushy and moldy. TEAR! So we had to throw them out and improvise a little bit. We made the Chickpeas and Charred Tomato Pasta recipe again, but we were forced to make a few changes. 

Instead of a pint of cherry tomatoes, I charred a half of a regular tomato we had in the fridge. To supplement the flavor, we added 2 links of TJ's garlic chicken sausage and 1/2 of a diced onion to the charred tomato. Satisfied that the dish had been saved, we reverted back to the recipe and followed all the subsequent instructions.

As a topping, we steamed some broccoli and sprinkled it with salt and pepper. We also topped it with parmesan this time - I think it was a good, but not necessary, addition to the dish.
