At the base of our Tahini Toasts with a Twist is whole grain bread, which serves as a nutritional powerhouse. Whole grain bread is made from flour that retains the bran, germ, and endosperm of the grain, ensuring that it is packed with essential nutrients. One of the key benefits of whole grain bread is its high fiber content, which promotes digestive health and helps keep you feeling full longer. Additionally, the consumption of whole grains has been linked to a lower risk of heart disease, making it a smart choice for those looking to improve their overall health.
