Monday: Garlicky Spinach and Chickpea Soup with Lemon and Pecorino Romano

"I love that this soup begins all North African… with warm notes of things like coriander and cumin and ends Italian style, with a pour of extra-virgin olive oil (the good stuff) and a shower of grated Pecorino Romano cheese. If you skip the cheese, you will not know what you're missing; it rounds out the flavor in the best way possible."
