Healthy, because
Chanterelles are ideal for vegetarians because they provide us with iron, which we need for blood formation and oxygen transport. Here you can find out which vegetable sources of iron are also available. The mushrooms also put us in a good mood because they contain tryptophane, which our body converts into the "happiness hormone" serotonin.
Even smarter
You can also prepare the bread dumplings with chanterelle sauce with other mushrooms. For example, mushrooms are available all year round, so you can enjoy this delicious recipe outside the classic mushroom season (late summer to autumn). By the way, leftover bread and rolls can be used in the bread dumplings. This way you reduce your food waste.
