Cheese
Did you know that a serving of cheese is 50 g (1 ½ oz)?
This is the same size as two erasers or a half-pack of playing cards. Easy to remember now, right?
Cheese, please!
Cheese is delicious morning, noon and night, as a meal or for a snack. All it takes is a little imagination.
Cheese for breakfast? Have you ever tried a slice of walnut bread topped with Emmental and jam? Delicious! Or how about French bread topped with Brie and jam, then grilled in the oven for a minute or two?
Cheese has the advantage of fitting easily in a lunch box. It's great grated or cubed in a salad or as a cheese stick to nibble on for snack.
Round off a delicious meal with a piece of cheese together with a glass of wine or a fruit. Pear, apple and melon are a perfect match for any cheese!
Variations on a theme
Besides being tasty and nutritious, cheese is incredibly handy because you can eat it at home or on the go. Highly versatile, cheese can turn any dish into an “au gratin”, enhance a salad, garnish a sandwich or pasta, be paired up with fruit, raw vegetables or crackers...
Since there are so many kinds of cheese (soft or firm, with bloomy or washed rinds, etc.) you can easily vary the textures, tastes and uses in your everyday cooking.
