The recipe is light, delicious and super nutritious. I love the nutty and smokiness of the freekeh combined with the earthiness of the kale. To make it heartier, I added carrots to the recipe, but it’s just as good without. The fresh grated turmeric adds vitality, feeding your inside with powerful nutrients. It’s an wonderful soup, perfect for all the four season.
