Serbian Rice
Serbian rice meat comes in many varieties. Our variant is prepared with lean turkey meat - this provides easily digestible protein, contains little fat, plenty of niacin, biotin and zinc and strengthens the immune system with vitamin C from the paprika.
To Serbian rice meat try long grain rice from whole grain. It provides dietary fibre that is long-lasting and satiating. But then pre-cook it for 10 minutes so that meat, vegetables and rice are cooked at the same time. Green peas add even more colour, taste and health.
