Nutritional values

Tofu and turkey are rich in easily digestible protein. Like the vegetables, grapefruits provide plenty of potassium and a thick portion of vitamin C. Pine nuts and olive oil bring valuable unsaturated fatty acids to the plate.

With wholemeal baguettes or rolls the salad becomes a sustainably satisfying meal. By the way: instead of turkey breast you can use chicken breast fillet or - especially fine - lean veal cutlet.
