Before we get to the recipes you may be wanting a quick reminder as to…

Why Should I be Eating Probiotics again?

Probiotics are live good bacteria found in food that promote gut health. Studies are now showing just how crucial gut health is to our overall health and even mood!!!

Probiotics promote gut health and thus may benefit our bodies in a multitude of ways.

Although more studies are needed, research suggests that Probiotics May:

  • Help repair the gut lining
  • Support immune function
  • Have anti-inflammatory properties
  • Reduce the risk of some cancers
  • Decrease the risk of heart disease and stroke
  • Reduce the risk of cognitive decline, Alzheimer’s and Dementia
  • Aid in addiction recovery
  • And for some people, help with mood and even mood disorders like depression, anxiety, and stress!

Say whuuuuh! Talk about being beneficial!

So your next question might just be,

“How Can I Get More Probiotics in My Life?”

Probiotics are found in fermented foods and vegetables like kimchi, sauerkraut, fermented pickles, miso, and Kombucha You can also find probiotics in kefir and yogurt. Snacks fortified with probiotics are now popping up all over the place. This are an option as well, although the above natural sources are usually the best options.

Greek Yogurt: The Versatile Probiotic

One food rich in probiotics that we can easily incorporate into our diets is Greek yogurt.

Many people add fruit to Greek yogurt to make a satisfyingly sweet snack, and I like this option too. However, many times I want something savory vs. sweet. Because I lean towards savory foods, I wanted to come up with ways to creatively use Greek yogurt in recipes. Sounds easy enough, except heating up yogurt, although tasty, can kill the probiotics.

Soooo… I started working on no-cooking-required Greek yogurt recipes. That way I knew the probiotics were safe from dying in the heat! Plus, I don’t have time for complicated recipes anyway. No-cooking-required recipes are fantastic for this time-crunched momma!

After months of experimenting, I came up with 10 no-cooking-involved probiotic rich Greek yogurt recipes (okay… I gave you a bonus recipe so you actually get 11!)
