Nutritional values

This variation of the famous Bolognese sauce is characterized by lightness and a particularly high protein content thanks to the turkey meat. The colourful vegetables provide flavour, colour and fibre.

If you want an even stronger taste: Replace all or part of the water for the sauce with vegetable or poultry stock. But then be careful with the salting!
