5 Reasons Why Our Lasagna FaBene
- Grass-Fed, Organic Beef with Anti-Inflammatory Properties
Our traditional lasagna uses beef from grass-fed, organically raised animals, which is known to have a superior nutritional profile compared to conventional beef. Grass-fed beef is rich in omega-3 fatty acids and CLA (conjugated linoleic acid), which have anti-inflammatory effects. A study published in the British Journal of Nutrition demonstrated that grass-fed beef contains higher levels of beneficial fatty acids that can reduce inflammation and improve cardiovascular health. Additionally, all our ingredients are organic, and we are in the process of completing the certification to ensure the highest quality for every component of our dishes (Cleveland Clinic) (The Daily Meal).
- Lycopene-Rich Organic Tomatoes
The tomatoes used in our lasagna are organic and cooked slowly to maximize the lycopene content, a powerful antioxidant. Lycopene is known for its benefits in protecting against certain types of cancer and promoting heart health. Research has shown that lycopene becomes more bioavailable after 30 minutes of cooking (Verywell Health). This means our slow-cooked tomato sauce is particularly effective in providing these health benefits.
- Homemade Low Glycemic Index Pasta with Long-Chain Inulin
The pasta used in our lasagna is homemade using Italian organic semolina and a combination of whole grain flours and long-chain inulin. Inulin is a prebiotic that promotes gut health by encouraging the growth of beneficial bacteria in the digestive tract. This not only improves digestion but also contributes to a stronger immune system. Our pasta has a low glycemic index, meaning it releases sugar into the bloodstream slowly, helping to maintain stable energy levels and prevent blood sugar spikes.
- Balanced Nutritional Benefits
Our lasagna is a complete meal that provides a balanced combination of proteins, carbohydrates, and healthy fats. Each serving contains approximately 350 calories, making it a nutritious and balanced choice. The grass-fed beef, low glycemic index pasta, and lycopene-rich tomato sauce combine to offer a meal that not only satisfies the palate but also provides essential nutrients for the body. This combination helps maintain energy throughout the day and supports overall health.
- Special Organic Cauliflower Béchamel
One of the unique features of our lasagna is the special béchamel sauce made with organic cauliflower cream. This béchamel not only adds a creamy and delicious texture but is also an excellent way to incorporate more vegetables into the diet, making this dish nutritionally complete. It is particularly useful for encouraging children to eat their vegetables in a tasty and appealing way.
