Put your chickpeas in the pot with 1 cup of water

Add bay leaf and your finely chopped onions, and chicken broth into chick peas

Remove HALF of your mixture (chick-peas, onions, broth and water) and puree it with a blender. Make sure you have a good amount of the liquid when blending, so that it blends well.

Pour the pureed chick peas back into the pot

Add all your other veggies, salt, and black pepper and the herbs mentioned above

If thick, add water as you stir. Your soup should be hearty but not extra-thick.
