Labor Day is a commemorative celebration celebrated in many countries of the world to remember the struggle of the labor movement and the reduction of the working day to 8 hours. Although it is not properly a holiday like Christmas or Easter, it does not lack traditions; In Rome, for example, Labor Day is often celebrated, with a trip out of town. The typical thing is to meet with a good group of friends, leave the city and immerse yourself in nature. Clearly, a gastronomic tradition could not be lacking: they usually eat raw fava beans with Pecorino Romano cheese. This is a typical cheese from the Lazio region (where Rome is located) and is made with sheep’s milk. As in the Fast Metabolism Diet, cheese is not allowed, I have not been able to respect the tradition as it is, so I have decided to create a special dish for this day: black rice pasta with fava beans and chickpeas.

I await your opinions!Â đŸ±
