Oubliez les salades de pâtes de supermarché qui vous font chercher la boîte à biscuits à 14h. Celle-ci est à base de gruau d'avoine, la version la plus brute de la céréale disponible. Le gruau conserve sa matrice de fibres entièrement intacte, fournissant une source d'énergie à libération lente. Associé à des légumes méditerranéens vibrants, c'est de la "vraie nourriture" qui demande une mastication adéquate et procure une réelle satisfaction. Pas de remplisseurs industriels, juste un bol copieux et nutritif qui vous maintient en forme.
