This is my very first time referencing Berlin-based Zucker & Jagdwurst. I don't think it will be the last.
We're killing it on the iron front two days in a row now. A bowl should get you about 30-35% of your daily recommended value (DRV), which is close to what you get in a steak. And fiber? Oh we got fiber -- roughly 50% your DRV.
Something to look out for: potassium. Potassium-rich diets are not great for a lot of people managing chronic kidney disorders. Always check nutritional facts on your own and see if a recipe works for you.
