Healthy, because
Beef is rich in the trace element iron, which is needed for blood formation and oxygen transport in the body, among other things. Cauliflower has plenty of vitamin C, which is essential for a healthy immune system.
Even smarter
Try to use colorful varieties of cauliflower, such as purple or green, as they contain more vitamin C than the traditional white cauliflower.
