Nutritional values

Lean turkey meat provides a lot of protein, which is good for the general growth and nerves as well as the muscles. There is also plenty of iron in it: 1 portion covers 40 percent of a child's daily requirement, and 60 percent of zinc.

Mediterranean is the low-fat roast with aubergines, zucchini, onions and tomatoes instead of the soup vegetables - then taste with tomato paste and thyme.
