I like to think of all the products nature gives us as colors on a palette, letting us paint a different picture every time... and in this flavorful, comforting soup, the winter garden is definitely the star! Thank you to @veronicagirgenti for inspiring me with her recipe!

Steps

1 hour
  1. 1

    Wash the carrot and potato well, peel them, and cut into even 1/2-inch (about 1 cm) cubes. Do the same with the washed and dried celery stalk. Slice the leek and cut the kale leaves (with stems removed) into strips. Soak the leek and kale in cold water to remove any dirt or grit.

    Heat the olive oil in a pot over medium heat. Add the celery, carrot, potato, and leek with a generous pinch of salt. Sauté, stirring often, until evenly golden.

Sono una mamma, lavoratrice, che ha scelto di costruire un futuro migliore per la propria famiglia anche attraverso l'alimentazione e l'attenzione verso l'ambiente, perché siamo noi l'esempio per le prossime generazioni. Si pensa troppo spesso che seguire un'alimentazione biologica sia difficile, impegnativo e troppo costoso... nulla di più sbagliato! Il mio intento è dimostrare che basta solo volerlo e il cambiamento è a portata di mano. Migliorare le nostre abitudini alimentari è molto più facile di quanto si pensi: viviamo in un territorio ricco di tipicità, varietà e prodotti di qualità elevatissima! Basta iniziare da pochi e piccoli cambiamenti, un passo alla volta e si può arrivare anche molto lontano se si desidera!
