Nutritional values

Potatoes and chicken filet provide plenty of growth-promoting protein plus a thick portion of B vitamins. Carrots provide lots of vitamin A for eyes and skin.

It becomes fruity with pineapple, apricot or peach in cubes: add the fruit only at the end and reduce the carrots by 100 g. Instead of carrot, pumpkin is also tasty.
