Good carbohydrates, high quality proteins, healthy fats, important vitamins and minerals. A varied and high-quality diet, with regional and organic products, is essential for a conscious lifestyle. It has a positive effect on performance and well-being. Of course also for cyclists, who can burn up to 8,000 calories on difficult stages. Satisfy hunger, yes. Fill your stomach, yes. But charging the empty memory is about more than that: A balanced, nutritious and tasty pleasure. Because eating is also an all-sensory experience, for the eyes, for the nose and for the palate. Jacques Horn, our Scottish mechanic who worked for Dimension Data, made this delicious sandwich. As a small snack or as a snack after training. He will be happy to tell you how to prepare it:
- Cut rye bread into slices.
- Brush generously with cream cheese.
- Season with black pepper from the mill and a pinch of coarse salt.
- A layer of diced baby tomatoes and strips of green and red peppers.
- Two slices of egg white, i.e. turkey, pork or beef ham.
- Plenty of lettuce, to round off and for the eye.
Meal and get it!
