Carrot and chickpea soup: Treasury of Health and Taste

When colder days slowly enter our everyday life, we dream of warm and filling meals that will fill us with energy and satisfy our palates. At times like these, soup is the perfect choice. Today's recipe is not only a great comfort meal, but also a true treasury of health: carrot and chickpea soup. Carrot, although often underestimated, is a vegetable full of benefits for our health. It is a source of vitamins A, K1, B6, fiber and biotin, also known as vitamin H. On the other hand, chickpeas, considered one of the healthiest vegetable sources of protein, provide not only protein, but also fiber, iron, zinc and phosphorus. The combination of these two ingredients creates a soup with a wealth of flavors and nutritional values.

About me
And short story about LEET DIET

As a choreographer and aerial gymnast, I had always been interested in maintaining a healthy lifestyle. Diets had been my hobby, but I never truly enjoyed them until I discovered the Keto diet. After reading numerous books about how our bodies work and the benefits of a high-fat, low-carb diet, I decided to give it a try. I never looked back. The Keto lifestyle quickly became my passion, and I began experimenting with new recipes and meal plans. That's when I decided to share my knowledge with the world and created Leet Diet, a website filled with delicious Keto-friendly recipes and helpful tips for anyone looking to adopt a healthy lifestyle.
