Nutritional values

For a meatless meal, this dish provides plenty of iron. The trace element is necessary for the build-up of red blood cells, which ensure sufficient oxygen in the cells. The vegetables also provide the daily requirement of vitamin C, which promotes iron absorption and protects against infections.

If you want to save fat, then use a yogurt with 3.5 percent fat content instead of the Greek yogurt with 10 percent fat content. This will result in just under 6 grams less fat per portion!
