Crunchy Chickpeas – Ceci Croccanti
Chickpeas or garbanzo beans are legumes and in the same group as beans and lentils. When we eat chickpeas, our body responds right away with better fullness and steadier energy. If we eat them frequently, they can support our digestion, heart, brain, and general wellness. I love making soups with them but today I’ve opted to add them as a healthy option to my aperitif buffet.

Italian Chicken Rolls – Rotoli di Pollo all’Italiana
These chicken rolls are stuffed with ricotta, spinach, pancetta and cheese therefore, it doesn’t get more Italian! I made extra filling so I could make a baked pasta the next day which was just as delicious as the chicken rolls.
