There is a wide variety of César Nieto products to choose from, but sometimes you may not know which one to choose for different times of the day. Each Iberian product has special characteristics and properties that make them recommendable in the different meals we eat every day.

If you do not know how to decide which César Nieto Iberian product to eat depending on the time of the day, here are some recommendations.

HAM FOR BREAKFAST

The key to enjoy good health is to have a balanced diet where the right amounts of different foods are consumed, and that is why breakfast based on the Mediterranean diet is one of the healthiest and most recommended.

It is advisable that all breakfasts include foods rich in protein, which will help keep blood glucose levels more stable. In addition, during the morning, hormones that convert food into energy and regenerate muscle mass predominate in our organism.

The nutritional composition of acorn-fed Iberian ham makes it an ideal food to eat in the morning. César Nieto acorn-fed Iberian ham contains 30 grams of protein per 100 grams of product, a great contribution that will make our breakfast the perfect meal to have energy throughout the day.

SAUSAGES FOR LUNCH

The midday meal is the time when we have more margin to consume those products higher in fat, since it is not the first meal of the day, in which we must be more careful with the consumption of fats, nor is it the last one, which, as we will see later, should be light and low in fat.

Mealtime is the ideal time to enjoy a good charcuterie board as a cold starter or as part of nutritious recipes such as stews, lentils, potatoes, etc.

According to experts, it is not advisable to consume more than 40 grams per serving once or twice a week. But quantity is just as important as quality. In other words, we must bear in mind the importance of consuming sausages from Iberian pigs that are the result of a traditional production process. If the sausages are of high quality, the fats will also be of high quality.

SNACK AND AFTERNOON SNACK

César Nieto sausages are also great protagonists at mid-morning snack time or at afternoon snacks, as they are products that we can always have on hand to prepare simple and quick snacks.

As we have discussed in another article, sausage sandwiches are undoubtedly one of the best snack options, especially for children.

The important thing is to vary the type of sausage so that you can eat something different every day. Our recommendations are the sliced Iberian ham or a good sandwich with our natural Iberian sausages and chorizos.

LIGHT DINNERS

Ideally, the last meal of the day should be lighter and low in carbohydrates and fats. In this way, you will not only help to take care of your figure, but you will also sleep much better and fall asleep earlier.

Iberian ham is an ally for light and tasty dinners, as it is an ingredient widely used to “brighten up” vegetables. Artichokes, asparagus, spinach, endive and zucchini are the recommended vegetables for light dinners. You can also prepare a simple healthy salad, just choose the ingredients you like and combine them with some slices of Iberian ham. Dining on toast is also a good way to have a light, quick and healthy dinner.

It is clear that any time is a good time to enjoy a good quality Iberian product. In the César Nieto online store we offer a wide variety of hams, shoulders and Iberian acorn-fed sausages in convenient sliced formats, so you can always have them at hand and enjoy their flavor at all times.
