Life on the French Riviera is not only gorgeous, but also quite delicious. My partner and I live in Nice, which is just a short (beautiful!) drive from Italy. A metropolitan hub with an airport on the Mediterranean Sea, Nice has always been a natural melting pot for a diversity of cultures. As a result, it is difficult to find traditional French dishes when one goes out in Nice for a bite to eat.
As the weather gets colder in the Northern Hemisphere, we often find ourselves looking for warming soups, stews, and other hearty meals. This recipe is perfect for a warm fall meal! Since fall is the season of the Vata dosha (light and airy), warm hearty meals are also particularly beneficial for grounding. Whip up this recipe for a nice lunch or dinner that you and your guests are sure to enjoy!
