Notes

I've been looking into alternative ways of getting iron rich food into my kids without them complaining and this is a great recipe that the kids will enjoy.

  • Yum, these really sound delicious. I’d love to try them with a little bacon added, and maybe some mixed parmesan and breadcrumbs over the top.

  • We love Brussel sprouts and they are so go for you. I love this recipe but would have to leave the almonds out.


    • It only adds a crunch on top so you could definitely leave it out, or replace it with something else.
