Strawberry Mint Toast

Top your toast with something new that’s also great for your gut! Our Strawberry Mint Toast is the perfect way to usher in all of spring’s finest flavors along with the probiotic, protein-packed goodness of Lifeway Farmer Cheese. Our easy-to-spread cheese is luscious, thick and creamy, and mild in flavor with no added salt so it’s easy to add to anything. Try it on top of a piece of toast with some fresh strawberries and mint like we use in this recipe for a light and filling meal or snack that provides protein, fiber, and antioxidants like vitamin C. Best of all, it’s easy to digest thanks to mint’s digestive benefits and Farmer Cheese’s gut-healthy probiotics.

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, support healthier blood sugar levels, and improve satiety since the bioavailable protein it triggers the release of GLP-1.

Lifeway Kefir also contains a variety of nutrients that are vital for healthy bones and overall health: vitamin D3, K, calcium, and vitamin B12. Along with our kefir, we also offer our artisan-made Farmer Cheese, a creamy high-protein cheese made with live and active cultures to support a healthy microbiome that’s easy to spread and contains no added salt for optimal heart-health benefits.
