Nutritional values

Vitamins, minerals, fibre and plenty of protein: all this is contained in this colourful and tasty children's feast. Walnuts also provide healthy fatty acids and fluorine, which strengthens the tooth enamel.

The crispy chicken legs go down well at every child's birthday party. If younger children should eat with you, no problem, then loosen the meat from the bone so that it is not possible to swallow the small bones. You can also prepare the recipe with chicken breast. If your children are not a fan of rice, you can also add wholemeal pasta to the vegetable chicken dish.
