Cannelloni is heaven! Our friends of Nutritious and Fast invented a low- carbohydrate variant with leeks instead of pasta. This is replaced by rolls of leek with cheese.
This recipe will cost you no more than 15 minutes to prepare and then only has to be in the oven for 15 minutes. Put a healthy meal on the table in little time: that’s how we roll!
What do you need?
- Fresh leeks (2 pieces)
- 100 gr. bacon

- 40 gr. grated Parmesan cheese
