The sulfur-containing essential oils of leeks dissolve mucus, relieve cold symptoms, and can already render germs in the mouth harmless. Red grapes owe their rich color to anthocyanins. These substances act as antioxidants that intercept and neutralize cell-damaging free radicals. In this way, they prevent the aggressive molecules from aging us faster and reduce the risk of disease.

If you prefer to do without the meat, you can replace it with a handful of coarsely chopped walnuts, for example. This also fits wonderfully in terms of taste and brings crunch.
