    1. Caprese with grilled aubergine (Vegetarian)<\/h2><\/div><\/div>[\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”83591″ img_size=”large”][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text]The Italian classic gets a summery update here. Grilled slices of aubergine with a fine roasted aroma meet aromatic tomatoes, creamy mozzarella and fresh basil. A dash of balsamic vinegar and good olive oil round the dish off. Ready in no time and wonderful for mild summer evenings on the balcony.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_bg_color=”bg–color–bg-blue”][vc_column][vc_column_text]Tip from nutritional science: <\/strong><\/span>Tomatoes are at their peak in summer and provide lycopene, a plant compound from the group of the carotenoids. It is responsible for the red colour and acts as an antioxidant in the body. Carotenoids are fat-soluble, which is why the body can take them up better, for example with olive oil and mozzarella on your plate.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column]

    2. Stuffed courgette with king oyster mushrooms & tomatoes (Vegetarian)<\/h2><\/div><\/div>[\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”83592″ img_size=”large”][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text]Tender courgette halves are filled with an aromatic mixture of king oyster mushrooms, chopped tomatoes and the scooped out courgette flesh. Crumbled feta goes on top and is baked golden brown in the oven. A hearty oven dish that fills you up without sitting heavily in your stomach.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_bg_color=”bg–color–bg-blue”][vc_column][vc_column_text]Tip from nutritional science: <\/strong>King oyster mushrooms provide B vitamins such as riboflavin and niacin, which can contribute to a normal energy metabolism. <\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column]

    3. Broccoli and tomato muffins (Vegetarian)<\/h2><\/div><\/div>[\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”83593″ img_size=”large”][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text]Savoury muffins with crunchy broccoli, sweet cocktail tomatoes and fresh chives. Instead of flour, ground almonds, egg and coconut milk bind the batter and make the muffins especially light and moist. Ideal for meal prep, the lunch box or a picnic in the park.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_bg_color=”bg–color–bg-blue”][vc_column][vc_column_text]Tip from nutritional science: <\/b>Broccoli contains glucoraphanin, a natural precursor of sulforaphane. If the broccoli is cut small before cooking and then left to rest for about 30 to 40 minutes, a particularly large amount of sulforaphane can form. It is being researched intensively and is in the focus of science above all because of its antioxidant properties.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column]

    4. Pepper pizza boats (Gluten-free)<\/h2><\/div><\/div>[\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”83594″ img_size=”large”][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text]Pizza in a different way: here the pepper takes on the role of the pizza base. It is quartered lengthways, spread with spicy tomato sauce and topped with mozzarella and cocktail tomatoes. After 10 to 15 minutes in the oven the cheese has melted and the pepper is still pleasantly firm to the bite. Fresh Parma ham and basil round the pizza boats off perfectly.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_bg_color=”bg–color–bg-blue”][vc_column][vc_column_text]Tip from nutritional science:<\/b> Red peppers are among the foods with the highest vitamin C content and contain more of it than any citrus fruit. Vitamin C contributes to the normal function of the immune system and supports the protection of the cells from oxidative stress. <\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column]

    5. Rocket salad with melon & goat's cheese (Vegetarian)<\/h2><\/div><\/div>[\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”83357″ img_size=”large”][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text]Sweet galia melon, bitter rocket and tangy goat’s camembert make a combination that is exactly right on hot days. The hob stays off, and with olive oil, apple cider vinegar, salt and pepper this salad is dressed in no time and ready to serve in only five minutes. Ideal as a light lunch or as a fresh side dish for the barbecue.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_bg_color=”bg–color–bg-blue”][vc_column][vc_column_text]Tip from nutritional science<\/b>: Melons consist largely of water and can therefore contribute to your fluid supply on hot days. They also provide beta-carotene, a precursor of vitamin A, which is important for eyesight and the mucous membranes, among other things. The rocket complements all of this with folate.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column]

    6. Summery Buddha bowl (Vegetarian)<\/h2><\/div><\/div>[\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”83586″ img_size=”large”][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text]What suits summer better than a fresh bowl? Rocket, grated courgette, crunchy cucumber and cocktail tomatoes form the base, joined by mini mozzarella, creamy avocado and fresh coriander. The dressing of almond butter and lime juice is stirred together in a minute. Nothing is cooked here. For dessert there is watermelon, which you can also cut straight into the bowl.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_bg_color=”bg–color–bg-blue”][vc_column][vc_column_text]Fact from nutritional science: <\/b><\/strong>Does coriander taste like soap to you? You are not alone in that. Certain aroma compounds in coriander are responsible, together with a genetic predisposition, among other things the OR6A2 gene, through which some people perceive these aroma compounds particularly intensely. If you do not like coriander, you can easily replace it with flat leaf parsley or fresh mint.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column]

    7. Colourful summer soup with Feto (Vegan)<\/h2><\/div><\/div>[\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”83367″ img_size=”large”][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text]A cold soup for hot days. Cucumber, balsamic vinegar and plant-based cream cheese are pureed until creamy, and on top come crunchy radishes, cocktail tomatoes, roasted pumpkin seeds and pan-fried Feto. Feto is fermented tofu and replaces the classic feta here. That way every spoonful is varied. <\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_bg_color=”bg–color–bg-blue”][vc_column][vc_column_text]Tip from nutritional science: <\/b>Pumpkin seeds are rich in magnesium. The mineral contributes to a normal muscle function, a normal function of the nervous system and a normal energy metabolism.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column]

    8. Late Summer Smoke Bowl (Pescatarian, Paleo)<\/h2><\/div><\/div>[\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”83361″ img_size=”large”][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text]Late summer in a bowl. Cauliflower florets are roasted in the oven until they are golden brown and slightly crisp, in the air fryer that takes ten minutes. Hard-boiled eggs, cucumber, red pepper, red onion and aromatic smoked trout join them. The special part is the fruity vinaigrette of blueberries, mustard and lemon zest. Fresh tarragon rounds the bowl off, and dill works as an alternative.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_bg_color=”bg–color–bg-blue”][vc_column][vc_column_text]Tip from nutritional science: Smoked trout provides valuable omega-3 fatty acids (EPA & DHA), which can contribute to a normal heart function. The blueberries in the vinaigrette contain anthocyanins, plant compounds with antioxidant properties, which the berries also owe their strong colour to.<\/span><\/b>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column]

    9. Summery oven vegetables with chicken (Paleo, Gluten-free)<\/h2><\/div><\/div>[\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”83596″ img_size=”large”][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text]This colourful oven dish combines tender chicken with aromatic summer vegetables. Courgette, tomatoes, shallot and chicken breast fillet are cut into thin slices and layered in the baking dish like scales. Garlic and good olive oil go over the top, then the oven takes over for 20 minutes. The vegetables cook in their own juices and stay wonderfully moist. Fresh basil on top and it is done![\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_bg_color=”bg–color–bg-blue” row_boxpadding=”vc_boxpadding”][vc_column][vc_column_text]Tip from nutritional science: <\/b>Good olive oil gives us monounsaturated fatty acids and polyphenols. It is a central part of the Mediterranean diet and is excellent for rounding off vegetable dishes in terms of flavour.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column]

    10. Quick quark bake with redcurrants (Vegetarian)<\/h2><\/div><\/div>[\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”83597″ img_size=”large”][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n
    Last but not least: A sweet finish with a good amount of protein. Quark, egg and whey are beaten with ground almonds, almond flour and vanilla into a fluffy mixture. The redcurrants go on top and sink in slightly while baking, and their fine acidity makes the bake summery. If you like it sweeter, stir in about 10 g of erythritol per portion.<\/span><\/div>\n

    [\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_bg_color=”bg–color–bg-blue” row_boxpadding=”vc_boxpadding”][vc_column][vc_column_text]Tip from nutritional science:<\/b> Quark and whey provide high-quality protein, which contributes to maintaining muscle mass. Redcurrants complement the meal with vitamin C and fibre, which can contribute to a normal digestion.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Enjoy trying out the seasonal recipes in August!
