Beef Lasagna
Healthy, because
Even smarter
The minced beef convinces with a lot of protein, which the body can use well as building material - for example for strong muscles. Beef also provides B vitamins, which support various metabolic functions, and easily digestible iron for blood formation.
Depending on availability, whole grain lasagne sheets can also be used for this lasagne with ground beef. This increases the fibre content and thus ensures a longer saturation.
