I haven’t made this one yet, but I will eventually. It sounds good:

Here’s a Thai dish that’s simple enough for me to make pretty often:

Garbanzo Massaman curry  
2 Tbsp canola oil  
3 small onions, diced  
8 oz. sliced mushrooms  
1 bell pepper, diced  
2 cans garbanzos  
1 can coconut milk  
4 oz. Massaman curry paste  
1 tsp red chili powder  
1/2 tsp cayenne pepper  
1 Tbsp fish sauce

Heat oil in wok until shimmering  
Add onions, mushrooms, bell pepper, and a pinch of kosher salt.  
Fry until starting to brown.  
Add remaining ingredients and stir to combine.  
Simmer for 5 minutes.

You may want to omit the cayenne, as the curry paste provides quite a bit of spice on its own.

I make a nice chickpea sausage kale soup. Those three ingredients (I use Italian sausage but I think it would be good as a vegetarian recipe as well), whatever kind of stock or broth you want, maybe some onions. Potatoes if you want, and plenty of pepper.  
My soup recipes are pretty flexible…
