The Benefits of Cultured Dairy for Better Health:
Research continues to show the importance of eating healthy foods, including cultured dairy such as kefir, for better gut health, a strong immune system, and to support the microbiome. Fermented foods like kefir hold important value in this line of research due to the link between the gut-brain axis and overall health.
Specifically, kefir has been shown to help diversify the microbiome, support the digestive system, reduce inflammation, support healthier blood sugar levels, and improve satiety since the bioavailable protein it contains triggers the release of GLP-1. Lifeway Kefir also contains a variety of nutrients that are vital for healthy bones and overall health including vitamins D3, K, and B 12 along with calcium and potassium. Along with our kefir, we also offer our creamy, cultured Lifeway Farmer Cheese, a high protein cheese made with live and active cultures to support a healthy microbiome that’s easy to spread and contains no added salt or sugar.
Prep Time: 10 mins Servings: 1 - 2Ingredients
- 3 tsp. Salted Kefir Butter
- 1 egg
- 1/2 cup Farmer Cheese
- 1 cup green kale, stems removed
- 1/2 tsp. salt
- 1 tsp. pepper
- 1/2 tsp. cayenne pepper
- 2 pieces sourdough bread
Directions
- Toast two pieces of bread to your liking.
- Add 1 tsp. Kefir Butter to a pan and warm slightly on medium heat. Then add the kale and sauté for 2 minutes with 1/4 tsp salt and 1/2 tsp. pepper. Once done, set aside and lightly wipe out the pan.
- In a bowl, beat one egg and season to taste with cayenne, 1/4 tsp. salt, and 1/2 tsp. pepper. Add 2 tsp. Lifeway Kefir Butter to the same pan you cooked the kale in. Turn heat to medium, then pour beaten egg into pan and let it spread thinly. Cook until eggs are done but still tender and soft. Scramble them, or make them into an omelet by using a rubber spatula to gently fold the omelet into quarters.
