Fuel your body with these four iron-rich bowls
Iron is an essential mineral that helps get oxygen to every cell in our bodies. Get on top of your iron intake with these delicious new recipes!
Loaded gnocchi bowl
Eating meat with veggies is a great way to help your body absorb more iron. Add some pillows of potato gnocchi and a sprinkle of grated cheese for a loaded bowl of goodness.
Beef and miso mushroom bowl
Lean red meat like beef provides haem iron which is easy to absorb. Serve with miso mushrooms, edamame beans, brown rice, and fresh salad for a nutrient-dense bowl with rich umami flavours.
Kūmara nacho bowl
Vitamin C-rich tomatoes and citrus fruits enhance iron absorption from plant-based sources like beans and vegetables. This colourful bowl combines kūmara, beef mince, black beans, and salad with a zesty avocado cream.
Moroccan lamb wrap bowl
Combining animal and plant proteins is a great way to optimise your iron intake. This bowl pairs lamb with chickpeas in a crunchy wrap bowl filled with fresh salad and a spiced yoghurt sauce.
