Wholesome Human Hero Ingredient: Sauerkraut and Seeds

This little combination features the fabulous four: Probiotics, Protein, Fat, and Fibre – exactly what the gut and body need after periods of restricted eating, whether overnight or through intermittent fasting.

The distinctive sour flavour of Sauerkraut is softened by creamy avocado and seeds to reintroduce the gut with beneficial bacteria, vitamins and fibre to ease the body back into eating. These probiotics can help improve digestion and overall gut health, potentially alleviating issues like bloating or constipation and improving overall health.

Sprinkling seeds over salads and meals like hemp, pumpkin and sunflower, are a great addition to a healthy diet and lifestyle. Seeds are rich in heart-healthy fats, protein, and several vitamins as well as micronutrients, such as manganese, magnesium, copper, phosphorus, potassium, sodium, magnesium, sulphur, calcium, iron, and zinc.

Ingredients

1 tsps avocado oil or extra virgin olive oil
½ cup Sauerkraut, a kraut of your liking
¼ large avocado diced
1 tbs seeds, hemp hearts or a mix of sunflower and pumpkin seeds
Season with sea salt and cracked pepper

Instructions

MIX all the ingredients, and you have the most perfect, nutrient-rich, probiotic side to complete any meal.
This is when you have hit the jackpot and when every mouthful counts towards health!

Try different varieties of Kraut and enjoy adding nuts and seeds for fibre and brain-boosting fats.
Always buy Krauts from the fridge, ensuring the bacteria are live, and always use a clean spoon and don’t double-dip to disturb the bacteria.
