Mediterraner Hafergrütze-Salat
By: Agi Kaja
Vergessen Sie die Supermarkt-Nudelsalate, bei denen Sie schon um 14 Uhr nach der Keksdose greifen. Dieser Salat basiert auf Hafergrütze – der unverarbeitetsten Version des Getreides. Hafergrütze behält ihre Faserstruktur vollständig intakt und liefert so eine langsam freisetzende Energiequelle. Kombiniert mit leuchtendem mediterranem Gemüse ist es „echtes Essen“, das richtiges Kauen erfordert und echte Sättigung liefert. Keine industriellen Füllstoffe – nur eine herzhafte, nährstoffreiche Schüssel, die Sie mit Energie versorgt.

This Non-UPF recipe is the perfect way to use your clean-label pantry staples—combining hearty grains with the bold flavours of sun-dried tomatoes, olives, and fresh herbs.
