READY IN 30 MINUTES
The sun might not be shining this morning but I’m still packing in the vitamin D thanks to this delicious mushroom shakshuka with vitamin D enriched mushrooms.
Vitamin D plays a key role in our immune function as well as maintaining healthy bones and teeth and even helping our hair grow.
Mushrooms naturally produce vitamin D following exposure to sunlight, which remains stable even when cooked. Research has found that eating just 8 mushrooms can give your RDI of vitamin D making them an amazing ingredient to add into your diet.
