Last weekend I had the first Christmas party of the season (oh yes, it is almost Christmas!!!), which meant I ate loads of food. Delicious food, but nevertheless tons of it!
In order to recover a little bit, today I prepared this cavolo nero soup, adding a few chickpeas for additional proteins. After eating the first spoon of soup, I already felt revitalized!
