HEALTH & BENEFITS

Lamb is a rich source of protein and iron, which are important for maintaining muscle mass and good health.
Iron is essential for healthy blood cells, carrying oxygen to all parts of the body, and aiding in the formation of collagen, a protein that contributes to the maintenance of healthy skin, teeth, and bones.
Olive oil is high in monounsaturated fatty acids, which have been shown to improve heart health and reduce inflammation in the body.

	8 lamb cutlets
	1 cup breadcrumbs ( I prefer winter wheat bread crumbs )

	1 large egg
	1 teaspoon sea salt
	1/4 cup olive oil
