Why eat porridge in the morning?
Porridge is an ideal source of fiber and complex carbohydrates, guaranteeing sustained energy throughout the morning. As well as promoting satiety, it's good for transit and easy to digest. Thanks to oat flakes, porridge is also rich in vitamins and minerals essential for maintaining good health.
However, some people may find porridge a little bland or monotonous. That's where the addition of ingredients like acai and autumnal spices comes in, bringing flavor and a touch of creativity to this classic breakfast.
Add acai for a dose of antioxidants
Acai, this Brazilian super fruit, is known for its rich antioxidant, vitamin and mineral content. By adding acai to your porridge, you boost not only the taste of your bowl, but also its health benefits. Unlike traditional acai bowl recipes, this version is easy to make because you don't need to blend the acai. Simply add it to your preparation, mixing it with applesauce.
This simple technique lets you enjoy the benefits of acai with no extra effort, while adding a lovely contrast of colors to your porridge.
