It’s a tasty snack that’s packed with protein. Kale is a nutrient-dense superfood containing high amounts of vitamin C and K, eggs have protein and omega-3 fatty acids, and our farmer cheese 13 grams of protein per serving and 10 live and active probiotic cultures that may balance the gut microbiome. What’s farmer cheese, you ask? Allow us to introduce you to this mild Eastern European style soft cheese that’s similar to ricotta in texture. It’s your new kitchen staple for baking and easy Toast Tuesday snacks.

Health Benefits

This leafy green contains antioxidants that may help protect against cancer if consumed at least once a week. To maintain antioxidant content, eat the kale raw or slightly cooked, such as a light blanching. With vitamins K, A and C, kale promotes bone health and normal blood clotting. Just 1 cup of kale has 20% of vitamin A and C, talk about a cup full of goodness. This superfood is also rich in calcium, potassium, and fiber. Veggie lovers unite because per calorie, kale has more iron than beef!
