DELICIOUS BREAKFASTS WITH IBERIAN HAM TO ENJOY AT HOME

DELICIOUS BREAKFASTS WITH IBERIAN HAM TO ENJOY AT HOME

You will have heard it many times: breakfast is the most important meal of the day. And the truth is that it is the first meal our body receives after several hours of fasting during which we continue to expend energy, although it may not seem like it. It is therefore important that our breakfasts are complete, healthy and, above all, delicious!

Start the day with a supply of nutrients and energy.

But how can you do it at home without giving up the Iberian flavour?

Iberian ham or shoulder ham is one of the best and, in fact, the most exquisite solution to start the day with a strong start. Not only is it a gastronomic luxury, but it is also rich in proteins, minerals, iron, vitamin B1 and vitamin B12.

But that's not all! It is also one of the foods with the highest sodium content and, thanks to recent studies, we know that top quality Iberian products contribute to the correct functioning of the cardiovascular system, like olive oil or blue fish, as well as improving the endothelium (the tissue that lines the inside of the blood vessels). What more reasons do you need to start including this food in your regular breakfasts?


TUMACA BREAD WITH IBERIAN HAM 

Tumaca bread

Ingredients:

First, toast the slices of bread and rub them with garlic to flavour the base of this breakfast. Of course, if you prefer to avoid this vegetable in the morning, you can skip this step and go straight to the next one.

Cut the tomato in half and rub it into the crumbs, so that the pulp soaks into the bread slice.

Then add a pinch of salt, a drizzle of olive oil and place on the slice the best Iberian product you can imagine, delicious!


MELON WITH HAM: FOR THOSE WHO PREFER TO START THE DAY WITH SOME FRUIT.

Ingredients:

This is an ideal combination for breakfast during spring and summer, and very simple! All you need is a ripe, sweet melon and a few slices of good Iberian ham to go with it - the contrast will make your taste buds water!


SCRAMBLED EGGS WITH HAM: FOR THOSE WHO WANT TO START THE DAY WITH ENERGY.

Ingredients:

First, beat the whole eggs in a bowl, add a pinch of salt and pepper. Optionally, you can add a splash of milk to fluff up the mixture.

Heat a frying pan and melt the butter, then add the ham cut into strips. Finally, add the eggs and stir the mixture well until you get the texture you like.

Optionally, you can add a little cheese to this breakfast, just as you are cooking the scrambled eggs with ham in the frying pan. It will add extra juiciness and an incredible texture.


AVOCADO, HAM AND TOMATO TOAST: FOR THOSE WHO ARE LOOKING FOR A CONTRAST OF FLAVOURS.

Ingredients:

  • Wholemeal bread or whatever you like
  • Tomato
  • Avocado
  • Olive oil
  • Salt
  • Oregano
  • The best ham
First, toast the wholemeal bread and add the avocado, previously mashed in a separate bowl to make it more homogeneous.

Then, cut the tomato into thin slices and add them to the slice, along with the ham. You can also replace the traditional tomato with cherry tomatoes, if you prefer to give your breakfast a different touch.

To finish and add even more flavour and juiciness, drizzle with a splash of olive oil and add a pinch of salt and oregano to taste.


IBERIAN HAM SANDWICH: FOR THOSE LOOKING FOR A DIFFERENT BREAKFAST.

Ingredients: 

First, cut the bread in half and, if you like it crusty, you can toast it, or eat it fresh (if it is fresh from the day, all the better).

Next, peel the avocado and cut it diagonally to obtain slices as evenly as possible. Also peel the red onion and chop it into small squares as small as possible.

On a plate, begin to assemble the sandwich as follows: place the slices of Manchego cheese, the Iberian ham, the sliced avocado, the chopped onion and finish by putting the lid on this spectacular breakfast. Easy and very tasty!

Now that you know 5 ways in which you can make your breakfast something extraordinary, are you going to settle for anything less? Remember that all you need is a good Iberian ham and start trying healthy combinations with these extraordinary products.
