Have you ever attended a business breakfast? A few years ago, this business meeting format became very fashionable. An informal meeting between colleagues, the presentation of a product or a talk by a specialized speaker became a
the perfect excuse to enjoy breakfast at work. You know that
at granola La Newyorkina we are die-hard breakfast fans. Personally, I believe that there is no time better spent than the time we spend having breakfast and filling our organism with the nutrients and energy needed to face the day. That's why these types of events that encourage gatherings around the first meal of the day seem like a great idea to us. However, if you have been to a breakfast at work, you will have noticed that the table is full of pastries and pastries, coffee and juices that, most of the time, are not natural but bottled juices full of sugar. Why not
organize a healthy breakfast at workWhy not prepare the corporate breakfast buffet based on
seasonal fruits, kefir, teas and, of course, granola.? One of the basic premises to choose the foods to include in the breakfast buffet should be to avoid those that crumble or stain a lot. A
croissant It crumbles and leaves your hands greasy (let's leave aside its high caloric content, butter, sugar, etc.) and the coffee can leave a terrible stain for the rest of the day. Well, now imagine a
buffet table with a fruit based breakfastbananas, blueberries, apples? (fruits that are easy to eat; don't even think of putting a watery watermelon, which is not comfortable to eat in front of anyone). In addition, a
wide variety of teas coffee and milk, and artificial pastries have disappeared in favor of a few more
kefir cups with a topping of any of our granola recipes La Newyorkina:
original granolathe usual granola but with Mediterranean ingredients;
granola pinkwith strawberries and a touch of white chocolate, or any of our recipes of
organic, ecological and vegan granola.
Why choose tea instead of coffee?
Tea is an excellent substitute for coffee, not only because of its antioxidant properties, but also because it reduces cholesterol levels, improves the immune system, is an excellent source of minerals (iron, calcium or potassium) and has diuretic and digestive properties. At granola La Newyorkina, between batches, we always drink tea. And not just any tea. We drink
Semper Tea.
Organic Semper Tea
We discovered Semper Tea a few months ago and, since then, in the break area of our workshop and our offices there is always a dispenser box of the different varieties of Semper Tea. In winter, it is perfect to take a break and enjoy a healthy and energizing hot drink. In summer, we choose to consume it cold, ideal to combat summer temperatures and the heat of the oven. What we like most about Semper Tea is that it shares our sustainable philosophy, since it has been endorsed with the
European Union Organic Certificate and is a naturally organic product. The preservation of the environment is crucial in the cultivation of its teas in
controlled, organic and fertilizer-free plantations.
Rooibos tea, our favorite
Between the
wide variety of teas from Semper Tea boxesThe one we like the most is Rooibos tea without caffeine. Rooibos grows in the Cedar Mountains, north of Cape Town. Only there are the necessary climatic conditions for the cultivation of this tea variety: lots of rain in winter and dry sand in summer. Rooibos tea is then dried in the South African sun, which gives it its earthy flavor and characteristic reddish color.
Granola La Newyorkina and Semper Tea, the perfect breakfast
My latest breakfasts have two indisputable protagonists:
Organic, organic and vegan granola, 'Apple loves ginger'.and a
Rooibos Semper Tea cold. I accompany the
granola with kefir or natural low-fat yogurt and I add
red fruits. If you haven't tried this breakfast yet, you're missing out on a great
ecological and super-healthy combination. Are you in? If you have a hospitality business, a hotel or a company of
catering that wants to offer a breakfast buffet with healthy alternatives,
