Munch on our Mexican Quinoa Wraps for lunch or as a fresh and easy dinner option tonight. On a toasted wheat flour tortilla, pile on black beans, corn, quinoa, avocado, tomato, cilantro, and our probiotic farmer cheese. They’re an excellent vegetarian option because quinoa and farmer cheese are both great sources of protein. Plus, they’re so simple to make, it’s as easy as uno, dos, tres!
Prebiotics + Probiotics = a Healthy You
Prebiotics are non-living, non-digestible carbohydrates naturally found in a variety of foods. Your body actually can’t digest prebiotics, so they’re what probiotics feed off of to remain actively working in your digestive system. They help the digestive system by promoting the growth of good bacteria. Prebiotics and probiotics work together in balance to make sure our digestive system stays on track and regular. Research has found that consuming a variety of prebiotic and probiotic food sources may improve your body’s natural functions, including both your immune and digestive system.
