Breakfast: Start your day off right with the taste of whole grains. Choose between coarse or finely rolled oats, which can also be made into porridge and topped with fresh fruit and nuts.

Lunch: Turn your lunch into a whole grain symphony. Float between the robustness of rye bread bites and experience tasty, convenient sandwiches, tortillas, or bagels on whole grain. Explore salads with soaked or cooked rye or wheat berries that provide a juicy crunch. The airy and crispy slices of whole grain bread are also an excellent companion when preparing lunch.

Dinner: As the evening approaches, let the taste and texture of whole grains take center stage on your plate. . Include whole grain rice, pasta, couscous, and bulgur in your favorite dishes and salads, or make a lasagna where the whole grain sheets hold the layers together. Wrap your dinner in the full embrace of whole grain tortillas or accompany the soup with a hearty piece of bread. You can also add a bit of oats to your meatball mixture or let the fish take a dip in rye flour or whole grain breadcrumbs.
