Vegetables, leafy greens, almonds, nuts, legumes, such as lentils, peas and beans, brown rice and other whole grains and wholegrain pasta.
The selection is vast and rich! In the menu you can choose anything from a delicious avocado to colourful vegetables, risotto, almond paté, raw vegetables with dip and whole wheat spaghetti with nut balls and scrumptious sauces.
The selection is also vast for the different types of nuts and seeds. You can choose from almonds, hazelnuts, macadamia nuts, pine nuts, walnuts, and many more. In addition to sunflower seeds, there are sesame seeds, flax seeds and chia seeds (very high in omega-3.)
