Cool, creamy, cultured Lifeway Farmer Cheese makes the perfect toast topping whether you’re feeling a sweet or savory piece since it boosts any dish with the power of protein. That’s why we love this Farmer Cheese Elote Toast; it’s the best of both worlds thanks to sweet corn combined with spicy Tajin seasoning. A hit of lime juice and some red pepper flakes take things up a notch while Lifeway Farmer Cheese’s cooling textures and flavors make the magic come together. Choose whatever types of toast you love most; we chose sourdough for its ease of digestion and since it holds up to the toppings quite nicely.

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, improve digestion, reduce inflammation, and even help support healthier blood sugar levels and improve levels of satiety due to how it triggers the release of GLP-1 since it is an excellent source of protein and high in bioavailable nutrition.
Lifeway Kefir contains a variety of nutrients that are vital for healthy bones and overall health: vitamin D3, K, calcium, and vitamin B12. Lifeway also offers our artisan-made Farmer Cheese, a creamy cultured cheese made with live and active cultures to support a healthy microbiome that is also an excellent source of complete protein.
