The Mediterranean Diet isn’t just a trend—it’s a lifestyle backed by science, celebrated for its incredible health benefits, and loved for its vibrant flavours. But what makes this way of eating so special, and how can your Thermomix® make embracing the Mediterranean way even easier?
Let’s start with why the Mediterranean Diet is so great
Inspired by the traditional eating habits of Greece, Italy, and Spain, the Mediterranean Diet is not just a diet; it’s a lifestyle focused on whole, natural foods that nourish the body and soul and promotes longevity. With no strict rules, the Med-Diet is flexible, delicious, easy to maintain and full of benefits:
-
Packed with antioxidants and healthy fats, this diet is renowned for reducing the risk of cardiovascular diseases.
-
An abundance of fruits, veg and whole grains helps reduce inflammation that's linked to chronic illnesses.
-
Low in processed foods and rich in fiber, it helps manage blood sugar.
Embracing the Mediterranean Diet with Thermomix® is easy
With a Thermomix® on your kitchen bench, you can prep and enjoy all the Mediterranean has to offer. Start by choosing foods your grandparents would recognise or those you can grow or farm. We’re talking about filling your plate with plants, using olive oil generously, enjoying quality protein and savouring the flavour with a mix of herbs and spices. It really is just simple cooking that focuses on seasonal ingredients and minimal processing.
🌿Use Thermomix® modes to prep Mediterranean staples
Thermomix® makes it effortless to cook from scratch. Not only can you blend hummus and tzatiki in seconds, but you can quickly chop garlic, onion and herbs, knead wholegrain bread, foccacia or pizza dough, sauté rich tomato sauces and even ferment your own additive-free natural yoghurt.
