Clean the turnip greens and cook them for a few minutes in a pot with boiling salted water. In the meantime, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a pan with a crushed garlic clove (optional). After a couple of minutes, remove the garlic and add the turnip greens.
Cook the orecchiette pasta in the same cooking water of the turnip greens. While you wait, chop the almonds and add some nutritional yeast (as a vegan option) or some grated Parmesan Cheese for the normal variation of the pasta recipe, with some chopped parsley.
Drain the orecchiette once cooked “al dente” and sauté them for a minute in a pan with the turnip greens.

Avocado: how much should we eat? Avocado is a tropical fruit, that has become very popular lately, as it is known to be a "superfood". Avocados are rich in unsaturated lipids and they have a composition that is very similar to the one that olive oil has. However, one must not exceed in its quantities, as avocado is still a fat and should be enjoyed in moderation.

Prepare the sauce by heating some olive oil in a pan with a garlic clove (optional).
Cut the aubergines into cubes and cook them in the same pan, and add the tomato sauce. Season everything with some salt and pepper and finely chop some mint.
