Everyone is looking for the best way to lose weight, and while everyone’s situations are different, including as many vegetables as possible into your healthy eating plan gives you the very best chance to lose weight.
In general,most fresh vegetables are high in fibre, vitamins, minerals and antioxidants, and low in calories, making them filling, nutritious and beneficial for your digestive system.
This recipe is packed with the goodness of beetroot, a vegetable that is rich in fibre, folic acid, and Vitamin C. If that isn’t enough, beetroot is thought to have cancer-fighting properties also.
These patties are a good substitute for rissoles and hamburger patties, if you want to have a meat-free meal, or if you’re a vegetarian.
