Our take on a delicious Italian classic. Primavera means ‘spring’ so traditionally, it would contain spring vegetables but we suggest you feel free to use whichever veggies are in your fridge right now.
Broccolini is a green vegetable similar to broccoli, but with smaller florets and longer thin stalks. Basically, it looks and tastes like a hybrid of broccoli and asparagus.
This delicious Colombian dish is usually prepared with chicken, but in this vegetarian version chickpeas or peas are used to add vegetable protein and substitute meat. In this way we obtain a very tasty yet nutritious and healthy dish.
You’ll never miss the meat in this bean-protein-packed chili. Spoon dollops of it on top of a steaming baked potato or slab of cornbread, eat it with chips in place of salsa, make a breakfast scramble with crumbled tofu and tortillas, use it as a burrito or taco filling…or simply eat it the way I do: with a spoon and the heel of a baguette. Bursting with flavor and fiber, it’s sure to become a new fave.
