These delicious pancakes have a lot to offer. The eggs provide provitamin A, the vegetables are packed with vitamins and fiber, and the shrimp is filled with protein and iodine, which supports the health of the thyroid gland.

You can use a variety of vegetables in this dish, for example, vitamin C-rich pepper strips or zucchini slices, which is also a great source of vitamin B.
