Traditionally made in a clay pot known as a skepastaria, Revithia is a Sunday staple on the Greek island of Sifnos. For our take on this bright and comforting vegetarian soup, we’ve called for canned chickpeas to cut prep time and added feta cheese at the end for a salty and rich finish. For an extra delicious experience, we recommend pairing your warm bowl of soup with crusty bread and a glass of red wine.

Very tasty and great flavor for minimal effort. I used Better than Bouillon’s seasoned vegetable base for my broth. Serving with crusty bread is the move.
