Nutritional values

Potatoes are rich in the mineral potassium, which regulates fluid balance and blood pressure. Chicken meat and beans score with a lot of high-quality protein, which is needed for muscle building, among other things. Spinach and parsley provide plenty of iron, which is important for oxygen transport in the body.

It doesn't always have to be white beans - the dish also tastes great with other legumes, for example kidney beans or chickpeas. If you love Mediterranean flavors, you can replace the parsley with thyme, oregano, basil or rosemary.
