A light supper

Life’s good, take it easy!

There are periods in your life when you spend a lot of time sitting at tables, whether it is in a restaurant or at home or at friends’ home, enjoying lots of great food. Not that you don’t like it, on the contrary, you get addicted to having sumptuous dinners and lunches. Anyway, a certain moment arrives when you have to say BASTA and have a light meal.
We have just come out of a time of the year when we have had plenty of delicious dishes: Christmas, Easter, asparagus time, wine and food tastings, etc., and now, very often, we feel the urge to have light meals, based mainly on vegetables and food “in the raw”.
Yesterday evening, for example, we were in the mood for a light supper; luckily we had already boiled some vegetables the day before, so the preparation was “light” too.
That’s what we had: a mixed vegetables soup with extra virgin olive oil and a toasted slice of bread, bruschetta with ricotta cheese spread on top and some cooked wild herbs (Cicoria di campo).

It might sound banal, after all the delicious recipes we gave you lately, but I assure you that our light supper was delicious and very healthy. Take a look at it.
